'Cause it's just a road, it ain't no highway
But I don't know how long I'll last
For a lot of country boys like me
I been down this road just searching' for the end
If you're going
But you've come too far to go back home
Longer than a memory
He's been a good teacher
So you better be prepared to pay
But you've come too far to go back home
It'll take you on the big highway
Leaves you lonely and cold
So you're walkin' on a nowhere road
I push that load, from here to someday
It don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again
Standin' on the shoulder
And you keep it on the yellow line
I know I'm going way too fast
Leaves you lonely and cold
And it goes, forever onward
I'm blowin' by the double five
Some folks say, if you keep rollin'
It don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again
Standin' on the shoulder
I'll push as long as I'm alive
The keeper at the gate is blind
I been down this road just searching' for the end
But there's a toll to pay
