What I Need to Do Songtext
von Kenny Chesney

I keep tellin′ myself, this is the right thing to do
I was wastin' her time, waitin′ on dreams, that just weren't comin' true
And this old highway, seems to understand
Leadin′ me on to somewhere, no one knows my name
I got the window rolled down, I got the radio up
I′m doin' all I can, to get my mind off us

What I need to do, is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can till I, see the lights of our hometown
And, run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn′t be so hard
But I drive on and on and on


Eighty-seven more miles, gets me into Baton Rogue
There's a buddy of mine, who said he might find, some work that I can do
Maybe head up north, to Knoxville, Tennessee
I know my baby sister, has got a couch where I can sleep
Now the sun′s goin down, on my broken heart
Lord I gotta get back, before I go too far

What I need to do, is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can till I, see the lights of our hometown
And run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard
But I drive on, yes I drive on and on and on

Knowin′ what I need to do
Girl, I'm comin' home to you
Knowin′ what I need to do
Girl I′m comin' home to you
I′m comin' home to you
Knowin′ what I need to do
