It's a long stretch of highway 
From Tulsa to Tennessee
You know I had to do it my way
It may have got the best of me
Sometimes at midnight I hear a voice
It echoes in my head, says that I still have a choice

I could get right, get baptized
Tomorrow I could probably have a pretty good life
But tonight I don't think I can slow these horses down
There's a full moon, I hear the wolf howl
And one more drink will put me on the ground
But tonight I've gone too far to turn around

I should have listened to my mama
Lord knows that woman tried
Yeah, she saw this road a-coming
And her fears were justified
I can't hide and I can't run
I can still see the smoke from the barrel of the gun
What's gone is gone, what's done is done

Yeah, I could get right, get baptized
Tomorrow I could probably have a pretty good life
But tonight I don't think I can slow these horses down
There's a full moon, I hear the wolf howl
And one more drink will put me on the ground
But tonight I've gone too far to turn around

Oh, is there a heaven or a hell?
Oh, only time will tell
Yeah, yeah, yeah

There's a full moon, I hear the wolf howl
And one more drink will put me on the ground
But tonight I've gone too far
Tonight I've gone too far
Tonight I've gone too far to turn around
