Turn Around

Dad, had a problem pouring water into a bottle

He would show up loaded like an old 45, son

Don’t let your past tell you who you are and where you’ve been

Turn the car around

Age of twelve, you kicked up the dirt, running hard in that field

Pulling weeds on your uncle’s farm Under the hood of that ford

He knew as did I that engine would start, like your heart

Don’t let your mind race tell you who you are and where you’ve been

Turn the car around

Live for the living, it doesn’t come easy,

That life he sees, in the rearview mirror

Whoa, the reason you’ve been looking for,

Turn the car around, Turn the car around,

One day, she will hop right up, as you open the door

To that red ford, she may be more than you bargain for

Read the signs, know you are not your daddy, man

Don’t let your past tell you who you are and where you’ve been

Turn the car around

Live for the living, it doesn’t come easy,

That life he sees, in the rearview mirror

Whoa, the reason you’ve been looking for,

Turn the car around, Turn the car around,

It is not the years in your life

but the life in your years that count

Life goes by fast at any pace

Drop a gear and don’t go sideways

You’ll get where you’re going any day

Live for the living, it doesn’t come easy,

That life he sees, in the rearview mirror

Whoa, the reason you’ve been looking for,

Turn the car around, Turn the car around,
