The Ones That Didn't Make It Home
(Justin Moore)


Everyday I'd drive to work across Flynt River bridge
A hundred yards from the spot where me and Grandpaw fished
There's a piece of his ol' fruit stand on the side of Sawmill Road
He'd be there peelin' peaches if it was 20 years ago
And what I wouldn't give
To ride around in that truck with him

If Heaven wasn't so far away
I'd pack up the kids and go for the day
Introduce them to their Grandpaw
And watch them laugh at the way he talked
Find my long lost cousin John
The one we left back in Vietnam
Show him a picture of his daughter now
She's a doctor and he'd be proud
Tell 'em we'd be back in a couple of days
In the rear view mirror, we'd all watch 'em wave
Yeah, losin' 'em wouldn't be hard to take
If Heaven wasn't so far away.

I'd hug all three of those girls we lost from the class of '99
And I'd find my bird dog Bo,
And take him huntin' one more time
Ask Hank why he took those pills back in '53
Ask Janis to sing the second verse of "Me and Bobby McGee"
Sit on a cloud and visit for a while
It'd do me good just to see them smile.

If Heaven wasn't so far away
I'd pack up the kids and go for the day
Introduce them to their Grandpaw
Find my long lost cousin John
The one we left back in Vietnam
Show him a picture of his daughter now
She's a doctor now and he'd be proud
Tell 'em we'd be back in a couple of days
In the rear view mirror, we'd all watch 'em wave
Yeah, losin them wouldn't be hard to take
If Heaven wasn't so far
If Heaven wasn't so far
If Heaven wasn't so far away
So far away
So far awaaaaaaaaaaa
