Kathy, You Steer Us Home

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some days you look back on a life And laugh at every twist and turn The stories that we tell at night The lessons that we had to learn Like that old 65 Ford Galaxie With no brakes and a borrowed chain [Chorus] You've got the courage of a hurricane And a heart that's honest, through and through When the whole world's rolling downhill I put my trust in you Kathy, you steer us home Every time, you steer us home [Verse 2] Your brother's tractor out in front The farm was where we meant to go I hooked it up outside our house Our driveway sloping down below Then the chain snapped and down you rolled Stomping on a pedal, nothing there And I couldn't catch my breath at all [Chorus] You've got the courage of a hurricane And a heart that's honest, through and through When the whole world's rolling downhill I put my trust in you Kathy, you steer us home Every time, you steer us home [Bridge] But you turned that wheel, back and forth Never let the bottom win Then you stopped, and we just stared And the laughter started in [Verse 3] Now when the road gets steep ahead I see you gripping that old wheel Brave enough to hold the line Honest about the fear you feel That's the story we'll keep telling Long after the tires are gone [Chorus] You've got the courage of a hurricane And a heart that's honest, through and through When the whole world's rolling downhill I'll always trust in you Kathy, you steer us home Every time, you steer us home [Outro] Back and forth until we're still Laughing halfway down the hill Kathy, I'd ride with you Down any hill
