Long Road

Stepping out of a bar With a six string on my back Another smoky room to forget about I'll make my way to another town Another one-night stand Watch the empty faces and think of home If I don't like this road I'm walking on I guess it time to pave another one But it's a long road Where I looked for dreams and my pot of gold It's a long road And no one knows how far it goes It's a long road Wasted years that have come and gone A long road I may not stop till Mexico In 85 I was 21 I called this life my own Singing my songs would get me by There's a motel sign that's calling me Just around the bend I can close my eyes and forget for just a little while But if I don't like this road i'm walking on I guess it's time to pave another one. But it's a long road Where I looked for dreams and my pot of gold It's a long road And no one knows how far it goes It's a long road Wasted years that have come and gone A long road I may not stop till Mexico For a while I thought I might go home But how do you get there when it's n gone
