Drive-By Truckers

The Distance
Standing in the trenches And swinging for the fences Locked on and clocked in I ain't coming to my senses From religion or expenses Or the runs that I ain't knocked in I'll take the best You have to offer and improvise the rest Then do it again tomorrow Keep your hands out of the coffers And always do your best And we'll probably let you follow We got three hours till daylight Locked and loaded for the drive You gotta know who you can trust And whose ass you should bust When it's hard to tell the difference When to put it to the test And when to lead with the left And what it takes to go the distance What it takes to go the distance When you live so far from home Determination and persistence Letras de cancionesWhen the first punch has been thrown Our forefathers used to brave The mighty ocean's wave For the things that were denied them Sailed far away from home Without cellular phone While the dragons swam beside them They built cities shore to shore For their grandson's to explore With just the Northern Star to guide them Traveled all across this land In our Econoline Van And did our best to stand beside them Passing out at the party And waking up alone What it takes to go the distance When you live so far from home What it takes to go the distance When you live so far from home What it takes to go the distance When you live so far from home From Letras Mania
