I'm Gonna Get There - Doug Balmain Lyrics

I'm Gonna Get There

I've spent many nights alone, sittin' in the dark,
with a bottle of liquor to warm my searching heart.
For years I've been a-driftin' like the lonely wind that blows,
I'm on a road with no directions to a place that I don't know.

Oh well, my gas tank is full but my wallet's runnin' dry,
I put my truck in gear and neglected my goodbyes.
Well I don't know where I'm goin' and I really don't care,
the only thing I know, I'm gonna get there.
Some girls have come around and left my poor heart broken,
sharks have smelt my blood and my money's been stolen.
I've been taken for somen rides, it's from these I learn and grow.
It's just another piece of the puzzle that I now see and know.

Oh well, my gas tank is full but my wallet's runnin' dry,
I put my truck in gear and neglected my goodbyes.
Well I don't know where I'm goin' and I really don't care,
the only thing I know, I'm gonna get there.

I've gone out a-searchin' for the great unknown,
and I hope you all will understand that I had to go alone.
I left my friends and family and I ventured far from home,
I'm just searching for the answers and I have to find them on my own.

Oh well, my gas tank is full but my wallet's runnin' dry,
I put my truck in gear and neglected my goodbyes.
Well I don't know where I'm goin' and I really don't care,
the only thing I know, I'm gonna get there.
