From the recording emmylou
Had this melody and road song idea going around in my head for a couple days. Kind of a 70s vibe with Dave adding a 12 string acoustic starting in the second verse, along with a great solo lap steel lick. We released it as a single and it did great. Double time tamborine on the outro.
Lyrics
I go down the lonesome road
This lonesome road
I go…and think of you
That’s what I do
Just another motel town
(A) Motel town
I go…and think of you
That’s what I do
And I...I can’t let you go
No I…I can’t let you go
Somewhere down the long white line
The long white line
I go…and think of you
That’s what I do
When I’m in a crowded room
A crowded room
I go…on missin' you
That’s what I do
And I…I can’t let you go
I…I can’t let you go
Solo
(And) I...I can’t let you go
Oh I…I can’t let you go
Walking under city lights
The rainy nights
I go…and think of you
That’s all I do
Just think of you
That’s what I do
