A Little Past Little Rock Lyrics - Singles - Womack Lee Ann

I had to leave my life in Dallas 

That town will always be you 

In every crowd, on every corner 

In every face I'd see you 

So with nothin' more than a tank of gas 

I drove away without lookin' back 

And I guess that's how I got where I am 

Goin' anywhere as fast as I can 

(chorus) 

I'm a little past Little Rock 

Further down the line 

Too soon to know what's up ahead 

Too late to change my mind 

I gotta keep my heart out of this 

And both hands on the wheel 

I'm learnin' more with every mile 

Just how leavin' feels 

It's a lonely stretch of blacktop 

Out into the blue 

I don't know where I'll go or what I'll do 

I'm a little past Little Rock 

But a long way from over you 

These headlights on the highway 

Disappear into the dark 

And if I could have it my way 

I'd go back to where you are 

Oh, but I can't turn this thing around 

And nothin' short of breakin' down 

Is gonna get me off this road I'm on 

Oh, and I'm still a far cry from gone 

(repeat chorus) 

I'm a little past Little Rock 

But a long way from over you
