Lyrics

First Texaco station just outside of town Feels good to be needed, kinda wanna turn around First pack of smokes I bought in the last three days Been hidin' 'em from Mama, I know she hates those things But I still light one up and she'll still love me anyway I'm a rolling stone, never can stay long Leaving is a bittersweet freedom Even if I drive a million miles I could never shake that feeling Kinda takes me back, kinda takes a toll Kinda breaks my heart, kinda makes me whole That's the way it goes comin' back From goin' home Yeah, there's a strip mall where the Lucky Strike used to be The cookie-cutter houses that used to be evergreens And the one that got away didn't really go nowhere She moved back halfway through college, got stuck cuttin' hair But I still kinda wonder what kind of life we could've made But I'm a rolling stone, never can stay long Leaving is a bittersweet freedom Even if I drive a million miles I could never shake that feeling Kinda takes me back, kinda takes a toll Kinda breaks my heart, kinda makes me whole That's the way it goes comin' back From goin' home You love it, you hate it You leave it, you take it For granted, yeah I'm a rolling stone, never can stay long Leaving is a bittersweet freedom Even if I drive a million miles I could never shake that feeling Kinda takes me back, kinda takes a toll Kinda breaks my heart, kinda makes me whole That's the way it goes comin' back From goin' home From goin' home
