There's a hitchhiker standing on the side of the road off of exit 104    And a forgotten billboard for a all night diner that ain't even there no more       Three deserted farms just like monuments standing cold and still    While a hawk and a lonely state trooped stand guard out on lookout hill       CHORUS:    I'm just following the road home on a trail of memories    Just a battle weary native son is there still a home for me    When you see me coming don't you turn away    'Cause this hometown boy needs a place to stay       And a little understanding on the road home    The road home…    There's still mud on my boots from across the sea    Ain't gonna kick it off    Cause it makes me remember what I need to forget    When I'm feeling lonesome and lost       There's a river of scars and it's running deep    Right down to my very soul    And this battle rages every step of the way    While I try not to let it show       (REPEAT CHORUS)
