[Verse 1 (Acapella): Sara Watkins]
Got a dusty neck and a bent back low
Feel the heat rise up over red dog road
Up ahead's just more of the road not showin'
That's a hundred miles that I'm goin’

[Verse 2 (Acapella):Watkins & Sarah Jarosz]
It's a long way up and a long way back
Ain't no short cut and no sidetrack
And there ain’t no sign of a shade tree growing
That's a hundred miles that I'm goin'

[Chorus (Acapella): Watkins, Jarosz & Aoife O'Donovan]
That's a hundred miles to get back to you
Been a hundred years and maybe two

[Verse 3: Watkins, Jarosz & O'Donovan]
See the road stretch out to the old home place
See a glad tear standing on grandma’s face
Gonna get some love and a big hello in
That's a hundred miles that I'm goin'

[Chorus: Watkins, Jarosz & O'Donovan]
That's a hundred miles to get back to you
Been a hundred years or maybe two
[Verse 4: Watkins/Watkins & Jarosz/Watkins, Jarosz & O'Donovan]
Got a dusty neck and a bent back low
Feel the heat rise up over red dog road
Up ahead's just more of the road not showin'
That's a hundred miles that I'm goin'

[Outro: Watkins]
That's a hundred miles that I'm goin'
