Carryin' On

Late at night when the crowd is gone I sit back in my room, pickin' a song And I got, and I got this feeling of moving on Like a ship out to sea I've been fightin' the waves Taking on water, countin' the days And I got, and I got, and I got to get to moving on Then it hits me, been running on empty for miles A little bit rattled, but still in the saddle is just enough reason to smile But Lord knows the hour is getting late And I can ride on another little while 'Cause soon the sun will be risin Above the horizon And that's what keeps me carryin' on A truckstop in Boise, broke down in Cheyenne That girl out in Lynchburg held the loneliest man But it won't, no it won't, keep me from keepin' on I can still see the women that I let down In various places when I'm passing through town And I know, yeah I know, it's my fault when it's all said and done Then it hits me, been running on empty for miles A little bit rattled, but still in the saddle is just enough reason to smile But Lord knows the hour is getting late And I can ride on another little while 'Cause soon the sun will be risin Above the horizon And that's what keeps me carryin' on Lord knows the hour is getting late And I can ride on another little while 'Cause soon the sun will be risin Above the horizon And that's what keeps me carryin' on
