But now I'm incommunicado
Driving by myself down the road with a hole in it
Songs with no bravado
Takin' the long way home
Now on the day that John Wayne died
I found myself on the continental divide
Tell me where do we go from here?
Think I'll ride into Leadville and have a few beers
Think of "Red River", "Liberty Valence" can't believe
the old man's gone
But now he's incommunicado
Leaving such a hole in a world that believed
That a life with such bravado
Was taking the right way home
So when I finished the last line
I put the book by itself on the shelf
With my heart in it
Never wasting time takin' the right way home
I know you're never wastin' time
Findin' the right way home
Still I am incommunicado
Livin' next door to a leg with a pin in it
Never wastin' time, takin' the right way home
[Repeat]
