True North

Some days, the only needle
That I'm movin' is the one that's on the dash and
Sometimes I'm a diesel
Runnin' on empty on a long stretch of black
East, West, left, up, down, right
Don't change where I point my headlights

To the Chattahoochee River runnin' underneath the pines
Sweet perfume off a honeysuckle vine
Corner Georgia dive, y'all come back on the door
My stuck in time, my true North
Springsteen, sweet tea, and a red letter page
All call my name when I lose my way
When I need to see the light on my mama's front porch
I head down South to my true North
(My true North)

My heart's got a compass
That must be a little busted 'cause it's
Stuck on a map dot, wrap around, supper's hot
Knows where I'm goin' and where I've been
But I got no objection
That it only points in one direction

To the Chattahoochee River runnin' underneath the pines
Sweet perfume off a honeysuckle vine
Corner Georgia dive y'all come back on the door
My stuck in time, my true North
Springsteen, sweet tea, and a red letter page
All call my name when I lose my way
When I need to see the light on my mama's front porch
I head down South to my true North, yeah
Oh-oh, oh, to my true North (my true North)

East, West, left, up, down, right
Good, bad or just alright
I'll always point my headlights

To the Chattahoochee River runnin' underneath the pines
Sweet perfume off a honeysuckle vine
Corner Georgia dive Go Dawgs on the door
My stuck in time, my true North
Springsteen, sweet tea, and a red letter page
All call my name when I lose my way
When I need to see the light on my mama's front porch
I head down South to my true North, yeah
Oh, to my true north
