Another Long Story Songtext

von Kevin Montgomery

Grew up in the same town
It was like she was born for me
I was turnin' seventeen years old
When she was just turnin' sixteen
Our parents said we went to the same church
I probably kissed her in the nursery
But when you ask me what she's doin' now
I say, man, it's just another long story

Drivin' out of nashville
I was bright-lighted by all the big trucks
So i got on the cb to explain,
It's just that i'm loaded down with all my stuff
Made friends with some dude from arkansas
Pulled over at a truckstop to have some coffee
And when he asked me what i was runnin' from
I said, man, it's just another long story

He said, man, i know just what you're talkin' about
The words comin' out of your mouth,
You've heard too many times before,
So don't waste your words on a stranger
You better conserve your energy,
'cause it sounds like you're gonna need it,
Besides, it's probably just another long story

Drivin' out of L.A.
I'd decided to make a clean break
Go where the girls talk with a drawl
And the real men still eat steak
Got a letter from some dude somewhere in america
He said, hey man, i love your music, it's a little rock
And a little country, and how come the bigwigs don't pusha you betta
And i said, it's just another long story
Long story
Long story
