Lyrics
Packed the couch and the amp Packed the lamp and the lamp Mom's old chair on the ramp The last truck leaves at dawn Garage is swept and clean Where we practiced every week Every scratch on the floor Is a song I used to keep Roll on, roll on Home is where we go Roll on, roll on Take it nice and slow The house stays in the mirror But the memories ride along Roll on, roll on The last truck leaves at dawn Hold the door for the neighbor Wave to the old oak tree Pocket full of house keys That don't belong to me New town up the highway New lights on the street I will play it loud tonight For the walls I'll meet Roll on, roll on Home is where we go Roll on, roll on Take it nice and slow The house stays in the mirror But the memories ride along Roll on, roll on The last truck leaves at dawn Turn the key Engine hums Here we go Here we come Roll on, roll on Home is where we go Roll on, roll on Take it nice and slow The house stays in the mirror But the memories ride along Roll on, roll on The last truck leaves at dawn The last truck leaves at dawn
