Lyrics

The sun starts to shine
The cold wind at her back
The hard ground leaves her tracks
And he ain't coming back

Don't you know it's a long walk honey
Pale faced Kentucky morning
There ain't no sense in running
This time he ain't coming back

So many regrets
Than he has time to fix
The hard road hums the song
of good deeds left undone

Don't you know it's a long haul back home
Old wounds are never long gone
Scarred up but never undone
So deep they keep coming back

So, he's on the farewell tour
Cause he's not sure he's coming back
He's throwing his hat into your front door
One last encore, one final act

No sorrys were said
Just I love yous instead
Words to those who would listen
And, nothing to those who wouldn't

Don't you know hes working the short rows
Planting new seeds he hopes grows
Leaving behind the no-shows
He knows they ain't coming back

So he's on the farewell tour
Cause he's not sure he's coming back
He's throwing his hat into your front door
One last encore, one final act

Cold winds dull the pains
And squeezes his tired veins
The hard steel can't break the dirt
A final deed to heal the hurt
Don't you know he's digging his grave
For a dead dog he could not save
Last rites for all they forgave
This time he was giving back

So, he's on the farewell tour
Cause he's not sure he's coming back
He's throwing his hat into your front door
One last encore one final act

Don't you know he's working the short rows
Planting new seeds he hopes grows
Leaving behind the no-shows
He knows they ain't coming back

Ba ba baaaa ba baaa baaaa ba
Ba ba baaaa ba baaa bye bye
