The Long Haul
woke up this morning
staring at the sky
I was California dreamin'
and wondering why
two tons of cargo
two tons of heartache
five hundred miles to go
man I can't catch a break
but I'm in it for the long haul
I'm going to rise up
I'm going to answer your callwoke up this morning
wond'ring what to say
got a twelve-pack of soda
to get me through the day
I've made up my mind
and I've spoken my peace
listen to the engine whine
the brakes sweetly release
I'm in it for the long haul
I'm going to take my stand
I'm going to answer your callwoke up this morning
with you needing me
to come home one more time
you know I can't say no
I know you can't say yes
after the afterglow
there's nothing to confess
I'm in it for the long haul
I'm in it for the ride
I'm in it for the long haul
and the truth we can't hide
