"Stone's Throw Away" lyrics

"Stone's Throw Away"

Girl, I don't wanna leave you all alone
I got that Troubadour deep in my bones
Baby, you're better than an empty bed
Truck stop, phone call, 2 AM

Oh-oh-oh, slowing down this train's something I can't do
Oh-oh-oh, if I was you, I'd leave me too

Knew you weren't gettin' that painted white picket
When you gave your heart to a ramblin' man
We can keep wishin' but it wouldn't make a difference
You know I wanna fix it but you know that I can't
You know that I've been missing you
And darling, that ain't gonna change
This old cowboy's always a rolling stone's throw away

Rise 'n shine to a Red Rock sun
Two days in, in a three week run
Feeling low, Colorado high
Sometimes I wonder why we even try

You knew you weren't gettin' that painted white picket
When you gave your heart to a ramblin' man
We can keep wishin' but it wouldn't make a difference
You know I wanna fix it but you know that I can't
You know that I've been missing you
And darling, that ain't gonna change
This old cowboy's always a rolling stone's throw away
Stone's throw away

Oh-oh-oh, I can hear the lonely coming through that phone
Oh-oh-oh, I don't know when I'll be back home

Knew you weren't gettin' that painted white picket
When you gave your heart to a ramblin' man
We can keep wishin' but it wouldn't make a difference
You know I wanna fix it but you know that I can't
You know that I've been missing you
And darling, that ain't gonna change
This old cowboy's always a rolling stone's throw away
Stone's throw away
