(Verse 1)
These cobblestone streets and the Spanish you speak, all remind Me
That I’m so far away from the cotton fields and ways I grew up on
I’m living this dream, and I’m trying to find grace to sustain me
The temptations too much and I give into the rush one more time

(Chorus)
It’s gonna be a hard road home
It’s gonna be a hard road home
It’s gonna be a hard road home
It’s gonna be a hard road home

(Verse 2)
The places I see, and the people I meet, they don’t change me
I take a piece from each one and I steal away like a thief in the Night
I’ve let myself down and I’ve picked myself up, and I’ve grown
I found mistakes are just lessons you leave behind for someone to Learn from

(Chorus)
It’s gonna be a hard road home
It’s gonna be a hard road home
It’s gonna be a hard road home
It’s gonna be a hard road home

(Verse 3)
The sun keeps on rising, and falls in the evenings
It always reminds me that time does the healing of wild hearted Rebels and renegades who stay on the run
But make no mistake, its not time to slow down
I’ve made the changes, when love comes around…I’ll kiss her Sweet lips and I’ll take my seat at the table
(Chorus)
Cause I ain't afraid…of the hard road home
I’m looking ahead…to the hard road home
Redemption it lays…on the hard road home
So I’ll make my way…on the hard road home
Yes I will, yes I will, yes I will
