A Long Way Home Lyrics - 1998
(dwight yoakam)
I wouldn't put it past me
I wouldn't press my luck
If i were you i don't believe
I'd take that chance with love
Chorus:
A big chance you'll be taking
The wrong odds is what you're staking us on
And any love you wind up making
Won't pay back half of all we've lost
I wouldn't play so boldly
Or push a sure thing too long
'cause your luck can get thin, bets not win
Then pretty soon love's up and gone
Chorus:
A big chance you'll be taking
The wrong odds is what you're staking us on
And any love you wind up making
Won't pay back half of all we've lost
So, i wouldn't put it past me
I wouldn't keep risking heartache
In any more games like these
'cause there's a way to lose hard with every card
You'll find out on your knees
Chorus:
A big chance you'll be taking
The wrong odds is what you're staking us on
And any love you wind up making
Won't pay back half of all we've lost
So, i wouldn't put it past me
I wouldn't put it past me
I wouldn't press my luck
If i were you i don't believe
I'd take that chance with love
Chorus:
A big chance you'll be taking
The wrong odds is what you're staking us on
And any love you wind up making
Won't pay back half of all we've lost
I wouldn't put it past me
