The Road Is Long (And the Sun Is Hot)

The road is long And the sun is hot It broils your brain It scorch your feet There ain't no mercy For the unforgiven There ain't no justice On the street There ain't no shade For the honest man You speak your mind You pay the price There ain't no rest For the lost and weary The bill comes due You pay it twice Out of the shadows The past arises It calls your name It speaks your doubts There ain't no refuge In the sins of glory There aint' no cure You turnabout The road is long And the sun is hot It broils your brain It scorch your feet There ain't no mercy For the unforgiven There ain't no justice On the street
