Lyrics

Driving in the rain

Sixty Eight blue Chevy won’t you take me home?
I know we ain’t been there in so long.
And I wonder do you remember the way, and I wonder was there ever another one?
Going home to one less place at the table. Found out last night my Daddy's gone.
And I wonder what my mom will say.
Cause Mama here I come, your red tempered son.
And I'm so sorry Daddy, but the time just slipped away.
And I'm so sorry Daddy. For things I did and didn't say.
And I'm so sorry Mama, what brings me home it’s your pain.
But you’re not alone Mama, I bet Daddy sees these tears I cry… driving in the rain.
And Dad I could’a called or wrote a note, but I got caught up in my life.
A brand new house, a car and a boat. Making a living for me, my kids, and my wife.
But, time shows no mercy to, those whose views they do not change.
And words once spoken and once heard, you’ll never, ever get a chance… to rearrange.
But Dad this isn’t the way I'd choose. I see what pride cost me to lose.
So I hope this doesn't come as news, your red tempered son he still loves you.
Chorus
And Dad your Grandson he’s a lot like me. And he swears I'm just like you.
But Dad I don't want to pass away, without ever hearing him say… "Daddy I love you."
So I try real hard not to make him run. And I try to help him with his pain.
Don't ever want him to wondering what he could’a have done…
… someday when he comes driving home.
Driving in the rain.
Driving in the rain.
