Kenny Wayne Shepherd - Show Me The Way Back Home Lyrics

I met a rag doll with button eyes
Looking so lost and cast aside
Begging spare change beneath the shadows
Of a sunset street light

I dug down deep into my pockets
Couple dollars was all that I had
She reached out like it was treasure
She looks so far away when she said
And she said

Show me the way back home
'Cause I've been out there running
For way too long
And all that I've learned

And just when you think
You've chased down every last mile
There's always another one
I need someone to show me the way back home

So many lost souls along the ride
It wasn't so long that soul was mine
Feeling forsaken, down on my knees
Needing some mercy, asking please

Show me the way back home
'Cause I've been out there running
For way too long
And all that I've learned

And just when you think
You've chased down every last mile
There's always another one
I need someone to show me the way back home
Oh yeah, ooh oh

And all that I've learned and just when you think
You've chased down every last mile
There's always another one, I need someone, yeah
Yeah, I need someone to show me the way back home

So many lost souls along the ride
It wasn't so long that soul was mine
