Michael Prather songs
Ok, this is just a rough Vocal/Guitar demo, a little hot in spots. I think with my big mouth I need to put the mic at my neighbors house to record lol.
Let me know what you think, is the explode thing to vague, will people think she is going to actually explode .. Hmm think of the video .. :)
Ok, updated the lyric, no more exploding :) Simple fix, don't know why I didn't see it before.
Lost Along The Way
Words and Music By:
Michael L Prather
She picks up the dishes
from the morning rush
takes them into the kitchen
to be washed
she counts out the tips
she's gotten so far
ain't very much
in the bottom of that jar
She remembers how
it was gonna be
she was on her way
out to Tennessee
Truck loaded up with
clothes and hopes and dreams
a young girl on her way
and ready to be heard
Oh but she ran outta
oil, time, money and luck
When she blew out the engine
in that old pickup truck
Now she's lost along the way
in a little diner just off the interstate
serving up coffee and eggs
to the people on their way
down that road she planned to take
Well he told her he could fix up that old truck
put a new engine in and fired it right up
Took it out on the road for a test spin
and he ain't never come back again
He left behind a memory both in shape and mind
she thinks of him every time those cars go passing by
and that school bus stops out front to let off
a little girl with her daddy's same blue eyes
Oh she found something good along the way
A sweet littile girl who fills here every day
And she hopes that someday she'll be on her way
Out to Tennessee
Truck loaded up with clothes and hopes and dreams
A young girl on her way
and ready to be heard
