Turnpike Troubadours
Solid Ground
[Verse 1]
It's been pourin' down rain on my old windshield, for what seems like three whole days
And I've been thinkin' about a brand new life, 'cause this one sure don't pay
Spendin' too much time on the telephone, just lookin' for a place to play
And I'm bound to roam, oh it feels like home, out here on this highway

[Chorus]
Oh but my mind has gone without me
To where I lay my burdens down
And I'll be standin' on a rock
On the banks of the Glover River
Closest thing I've known to solid ground

[Verse 2]
Been seein' your face at different times and places in the rearview of my mind
And hindsight's 20-20, but I can't count how many times that I've gone blind
Leaves me feelin' kinda heavy like all my levees are just about to break
And it's damn poor weather, but I'm holdin' together, Lord there's too much at stake

[Chorus]
Oh but my mind has gone without me
To where I lay my burdens down
And I'll be standin' on a rock
On the banks of the Glover River
Closest thing I've known to solid ground
[Verse 3]
And I'll be southbound, and headed down, tomorrow at first light
Now I'll be dreamin', Lord when I'm leavin' they can kiss my ass goodbye
And I'll be feelin' kind a heavy like all my levy's just abound to break
And it's damn poor weather, but I'm holdin' together, lord there's too much at stake

[Chorus]
Oh but my mind has gone without me
To where I lay my burdens down
And I'll be standin' on a rock
On the banks of the Glover River
Closest thing I've known to solid ground
