  Got a dusty neck and a bent back load
  Feel the heat rise up off a red dark road
  Up ahead's just more the road not showing
  That's a hundred miles that I'm going

  It's a long way up and a long way back
  Ain't no short cut and no side track
  And there ain’t no sign of a shade tree growing
  That's a hundred miles that I'm going

  That's a hundred miles to get back to you
  And a hundred years and maybe two

  Seen the road stretched out from the old home place
  Seen glad tears standing on Grandma’s face
  Gonna get some love and a big hello-ing
  That's a hundred miles that I'm going

  That's a hundred miles to get back to you
  Then a hundred years or maybe two

  Got a dusty neck and a bent back load
  Feel the heat rise up off a red dark road
  Up ahead's just more that the road not showing
  That's a hundred miles that I'm going
  That's a hundred miles that I'm going
