From the recording BEAVERCREEK
Lyrics
DUST OFF By: Howie Askay
I’ve been gone for oh so long
My worlds got me on fire
Working my fingers to skin and bone
Dirt under my nails and toes
(CHORUS) It’s a long way home and the nights coming fast
So I’ll sleep right here tonight
Such a long way there and I’m ready to fly
I’ll dust off my seat and ride
I need a reaction from my old gal
She’s taking to long to call
So I sit there wondering what I want
Reach for me that’s all
(CHORUS)
Crickets calm and the dawn has come
Frogs have gone to sleep
Saddle my horse and kick my feet
It’s time she counts on me, she really counts on me
Wipe my nose and lick my pride
I’ve got till then to fret
Spot my house and shake my arms
Think of the time we met
