Lyrics
Verse 1
Sun’s droppin’ low on the grain elevatorHands on the wheel, but my mind’s home laterMud on my boots and a hard day’s worthStill got your smile pullin’ me through this earthI’ve been countin’ hours on the dash all dayOne more mile and I’ll be on my wayBack to that porch, back to that lightBack to your arms by the end of the night
Pre‑Chorus
I can taste that supper airHear your voice in the kitchen thereLittle ones laughin’, screen door swingHeaven wears an ordinary ring
Chorus
I’m headin’ home, headin’ homeWhere your love keeps my heart in tuneI’m headin’ home, headin’ homeRight back to me and youKick off the dust, leave the day behindTrade these boots for a peace of mindI’m headin’ home, headin’ homeWhere my best life waits by the moon
Verse 2
The barn’s been fixed and the fence got mendedBoss man talked, and the shift finally endedI’ve had enough of the clock and grindI want your hand in mine tonightMaybe the table’s set, maybe notMaybe the kids left socks on the floor and forgotI don’t mind, I just need that viewOf everybody I’ve been workin’ for comin’ into you
Pre‑Chorus
I can smell that front-porch pineSee your face in the doorway shineAll that tired just fades awayWhen you call my name that way
Chorus
I’m headin’ home, headin’ homeWhere your love keeps my heart in tuneI’m headin’ home, headin’ homeRight back to me and youKick off the dust, leave the day behindTrade these boots for a peace of mindI’m headin’ home, headin’ homeWhere my best life waits by the moon
Bridge
One more turn, and I’ll be thereEvery hard hour turns to prayerIf I had one wish when I cross that gateIt’d be your arms, and a warm plate
Chorus
I’m headin’ home, headin’ homeWhere your love keeps my heart in tuneI’m headin’ home, headin’ homeRight back to me and youKick off the dust, leave the day behindTrade these boots for a peace of mindI’m headin’ home, headin’ homeWhere my best life waits by the moon
