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
