COWPIE Country Music Lyrics

Emerson Drive

The Extra Mile

Written By: Bonnie Baker, Paul Sikes


It hurts to walk this gravel road
It’s hard to find and overgrwon
You will see how much I’m worth
When you get past the rocks and dirt
Come on walk with me
I’m the extra mile

When you do, you’re gonna fall 
And wonder why, you walked at all
Young and weary and wanna stop
Because every hill takes all you got
Come on, walk with me
Oh, I’m the extra mile

I’m that smile you give a stranger 
When you’d rather turn your head
I’m that book you read to your children
When you’d rather be in bed
I’m forgiveness that you give
When you don’t think you can
Forgive somebody one more time

At the end there’s no parade
Just you and me to celebrate
How far you’ve come by choosing me
How you ignore those tired feet
Come on, walk with me
Oh, I’m the extra mile

I’m that sacrafice that you make for someone you don’t know
I’m that teardrop for the soldier you read about at home
I’m the love you give somebody who doesn’t give it back
Come on, walk with me a while
Oh, I’m the extra mile
Yeah

Being more than what you see
Takes all of you and one of me
Come on, walk with me
I’m the extra mile
I’m the extra mile
 
Oh, I’m the extra mile
Oh, I’m the extra mile
Baby, I’m the extra mile
