Lyrics
Well let me start by saying I did all that I could do but everything I got could never be enough for you and now I’m running out of gas and I can’t pay my rent so I’m doing what I should’ve done the day that you got bent and I’m putting down my boot I’m drawing this line and I’m leaving what’s yours and I’m taking what’s mine ‘cause it’s been a long day (been a long day!) it’s all right (it’s all right!) there’s an Appalachian wrecking ball on the horizon tonight well I fell in love with leaving like I did when I was free and I hit I 65 headed up to Tennessee and I pulled into Johnson City around quarter to three I left the lights on in the driveway and I woke up JB and I said I just lost my job I got put out on the street and I could use a PBR and something to eat and if you’ve got a couch well I’ve got a guitar and we could sit here writing songs until we’re stars ‘cause it’s been a long day (been a long day!) it’s all right (it’s all right!) there’s an Appalachian wrecking ball on the horizon tonight come on it’s been a long day (been a long day!) it’s all right (it’s all right!) there’s an Appalachian wrecking ball on the horizon tonight said it’s been a long day (been a long day!) it’s all right (it’s all right!) there’s an Appalachian wrecking ball on the horizon tonight yeah there’s an Appalachian wrecking ball on the horizon tonight
