Travis Dean - Highway 39 Lyrics

Ooooooooooooooooooo
A little house out in the country
An old mailbox on a pole
Oh we didn't have much money
But we were full and never cold
Family game nights around the fire
While daddy played his old guitar
And Mama sang the songs of Jesus
Well they would warm you to the heart
But those days are just a memory
I think about them all the time
And I would give up every penny
For just one day in that life
I'd like to go back to a way of living
Where having less is always fine
Back to where family is all that matters
Not worried about the extra dime
Back to where everyone loves
Their neighbor
No matter how they live their life
I'd like to go back to that life
Out on Highway 39
Ooooooooooooooooooo
Now time has brought us to the present
I have a family of my own
Daddy's gone to be with Jesus
And Mama's growing old
In this cold and empty crazy world
Sometimes I look back on my life
Pray God will help me show my children
The lessons I've learned back in those times
Now those days are gone
But they have made me strong
They taught me how to live my life
I wonder how this world would be
If we would go back to those times
I'd like to go back to a way of living
Where having less is always fine
Back to where family is all that matters
Not worried about the extra dime
Back to where everyone loves
Their neighbor
No matter how they live their life
I'd like to go back to that life
Out on Highway 39
There are times that I just close my eyes
Imagine lying in that little twin bed
Remember hearing mom and dad
Pray that God would guide my every step
I'd like to go back to a way of living
Where having less is always fine
Back to where family is all that matters
Not worried about the extra dime
Back to where everyone loves
Their neighbor
No matter how they live their life
I'd like to go back to that life
Out on Highway 39
I'd like to go back to that life
Out on Highway 39
Oooooooooooooooo
Take me back, take me back
I wanna go home
