Jamey Johnson - Back to Caroline [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
He said, "The storm is getting stronger"
As he climbed inside my truck
"I'm headed back to Carolina
God's will and any luck"
And he told me how he'd left his family
So many years ago
And he'd seen the whole world on the shoulders
But now it's time to go back home
And he said

[Chorus]
"This road goes on forever
I've been travelling all my life
And I've seen the rain, I've felt the thunder
But it never changed my mind
I'm going back to Caroline"

[Verse 2]
I dropped him off at the state line
And then I thought about my life
And everything I left behind me
Two children and my wife
I left them waiting for a phone call
And that was twenty days ago
But now I'm in it for the long haul
And it's time to go back home

[Chorus]
And this damn road keeps getting longer
I've been travelling it some time
And I've seen the rain, I've felt the thunder roll on
But it never changed my mind
I'm going back to Caroline

[Tag]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Whoa Lord, I'm going back to Caroline
Whoa oh
