Lyrics : A Long Long way To Go

Well, I drove down to the ocean
Left my heartache way behind
But the rain won't leave, the pain won't ease
And the sun don't wanna shine

So I ordered me up a killer
Found a view out across the sea
I sat down in the sand, a drink in my hand
And the glass lookin' back at me

I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad, love won't leave me alone
I've got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I've got a long, long way to go
Yeah, I've got a long, long way to go

Well, I met an ol' boy from Georgia
His woman done knocked him down
I asked him how he's doin', he stared at me confused
And said, "Hey, can't you look around?"

He said "The rain won't leave, the pain won't ease
"And the sun don't wanna shine
"And there's somethin' in the bottom of this drink I've just gotten
"And it don't look like a worm to me
[
"I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad, love won't leave me alone
I've got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I've got a long, long way to go
Yeah, I've got a long, long way to go"

So we put our drinks together, and we toasted rainy weather
And the women that had done us wrong
Then we threw back margaritas, the bugs just made it sweeter
And we both sang a happy song

I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad, love won't leave me alone
I've got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I've got a long, long way to go

Yeah, I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad, love won't leave me alone
I've got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I've got a long, long way to go

Yeah, I got a bug in my margarita
Seems bad, love won't leave me alone
I've got a woman I'm tryin' to drink away
And I've got a long, long way to go
Yeah, I got a long, long way to go

Alan Jackson Opens Up

Alan Jackson isn’t known for being talkative. In fact, the shy superstar rarely does interviews.  Alan and his wife Denise sat down for a rare open and candid chat about his remarkable career, as well as their marriage and family.

The problems he and Denise experienced in their marriage in the ‘90s are well-documented. “God took our mess and made something wonderful out of it,” Denise said. “We have the marriage we always wanted and I don’t think we would’ve had we not gone through that separation.” Their love and strong commitment to one another got them through what was possibly the most difficult year of their lengthy union. In 2010, Denise was diagnosed with cancer, a diagnosis that shocked their family.

“I just couldn’t believe it, it was unreal,” said Alan.  “To see her go through that, it was the hardest thing I’ve ever been through. I’ve been taking care of her since she was 16, but I couldn’t do anything  to help her. It was tough.”
“But there were blessings in it,” Denise says. “For my children to see my faith in a situation like this, I think it made a profound impact on them.”

A member of the now-famous country music new artist “Class of ’89″ (classmates included Garth Brooks and Clint Black), Alan has charted an amazing 35 No. 1 hits and wrote or co-wrote 24 of them. “It’s great to see an artist like Alan Jackson who knows who he is, who doesn’t waver based on what’s going on.  He just keeps being Alan,” says Lee Ann Womack.

Alan clearly knows what works and has always kept it simple.  “Most of the singers I admire – Gene Watson, Charley Pride – they just sing,” he says.  “They’re not out there doing anything crazy
