I've been lost since the day I was born
Took some time now I'm on my own
Nothing wrong with being alone
'Til you break down on a backwoods road
Can't change a man once he's finally grown
Takes too long, now, and don't you know
I'm a lonely soul
Head up high since the day I left home
'Til I rest in the dirt below
Searching wide past the dusty loam
For something real, that's what I've been told
Can't change a man once he's finally grown
His mind is made and his seeds are sown
I'm a lonely soul
I've been lost since the day I was born
Found myself out on a backwoods road
Hell if I know where it goes
The only sound's my feet on the dirt below
Can't change a man but he can change his own
You would have thought by now I'd have seen it all
I'm a lonely soul
