"Lean Into The Blue" lyrics

Fired one up on the straight-a-way side of Tennessee
Tried to shake the voices in my head
Never been one for long goodbyes it seems
Some things are easier done than said

It's been a ride, oh it's been a rough damn ride
Barely a dollar to my name
40 something reasons to give up on a feeling
But I've come too far to turn away

So if it's all the same to you, I think I'll see it through
Breaks they come and go, we may miss a few
So if this is where we part I guess, there ain't nothing left
But to smile and turn into the wind, lean in to the blue, take it around again

I can still recall all them wined and wasted nights
On the red clay riverbanks back home
Moonlight on the waterside
How it flashed and shined just like jukebox chrome

Lord knows I appreciate that memory
I'm just fine to leave the past right where it fell
And these unfamiliar city streets
Don't they tend to suit me just as well

So if it's all the same to you, I think I'll see it through
Breaks they come and go, we may miss a few
So if this is where we part I guess, there ain't nothing left
But to smile and turn into the wind, lean in to the blue, take it around again

When my boots, my boots no longer carry me
And they come to lay my body down
My spirit's bound to keep running free
Oh you'll see it headed for the edge of town

Let my mama know I'm happy now
Tell my dad I done my best
Send me out on that night line flying
It runs Charleston south to Charleston west

So if it's all the same to you, I think I'll see it through
Breaks they come and go, we may miss a few
So if this is where we part I guess, there ain't nothing left
But to smile and turn into the wind, lean in to the blue, take it around again
Turn into the wind, lean in to the blue, take it around again
