Lyrics
He was thumbin' outside of Biloxi/A life stalled at a crossroad lookin' for a sign
An old powder blue caddy pulled over/Squealed to the shoulder to offer him a ride
Her silver hair just reached above the dashboard/She stuck out her hand/Said "Howdy do!/
I'm gonna put the Lord's good book between us/And if you don't hurt me/I won't hurt you
(Chorus)
I don't care where you've been it's about where you're goin'/Where you're goin' and knowin' how to get there/There's a way and a plan and a place you belong/It's been there all along we need to find/Where is there
And she went on/
Some folks say I'm like Mother Theresa but I'm born again Baptist and I sure ain't no saint/
I've had my own share of detours/Got twisted turned off-course/And it took a helping hand to set me straight
(Chorus)
I don't care where you've been it's about where you're goin'/Where you're goin' and knowin' how to get there/There's a way and a plan and a place you belong/It's been there all along we need to find/Where is there
You and me we don't know where we're destined/You're a young soul tryin' to find your way on earth/I'm just an old lady tryin' to reach heaven
(Chorus)
So, I don't care where you've been it's about where you're goin'/Where you're goin' and knowin' how to get there/There's a way and a plan and a place you belong/It's been there all along we need to find/Where is there
