Well the miles that lay between us are getting longer everyday
I don't know how much more that I'm gonna take
Lord I took a job far from home and I spend too many nights on the road
While the girl that I love is home sleeping all alone
Well I made up my mind today
I'll be rollin' south right away
Hold on baby your man is comin' home to stay
Well cause I'm on my way down to my old Dixie town
Back in those hills where the simple life can still be found
I've been chasing those dollar signs when I should've been holdin' that woman of mine
Gettin' ahead ain't worth leaving love behind
When you're workin' for pennies and you could've been lovin' a dime
Well she used to call in the morning when I was working on the factory floor
Fixin' some machine that don't care if I see her no more
Well but thinkin' of her cute little smile, it kept me holding on for a while
But a man needs more than a call on a telephone
Oh my Chevy lord she's all gassed up
I got a burger and a full coffee cup
And enough Gary Stewart albums to get me home
Yeah cause I'm on my way down to my old Dixie town
Back in those hills where the simple life can still be found
I've been chasing those dollar signs when I should've been holdin' that woman of mine
Gettin' ahead ain't worth leaving love behind
Oh when you're workin' for pennies and you could've been lovin' a dime
Come on now
Oh big ole' highway won't you carry me home
I've been a long, long time gone
Now I'm goin' back to the place that I belong
Well cause I'm on my way down to my old Dixie town
Back in those hills where the simple life can still be found
Yeah I've been chasing those dollar signs when I should've been holdin' that woman of mine
Gettin' ahead ain't worth leaving love behind
Oh when you're workin' for pennies and you could've been lovin' a dime
When you're workin' for pennies and you could've been lovin' a dime
Lord when you're workin' for pennies and you could've been lovin' a dime
