Down The Road |
Took the bus out of Austin, band was all on board |
Everyone’s so excited, who knows what lays in store |
Hey look out the window, there goes Baton Rouge |
Nobody there knows us, band’s still paying its dues |
Yeah we’re paying dues |
First show in New Orleans, saw the lights of Bourbon Street |
On the road in the morning, Little Rock’s where we’ll be |
And the bus keeps on rolling, down that old highway |
And every night we play music, that’s what gets you through the day |
Yeah, cause that’s why we play |
And the rain keeps pouring down and it’s leaking in our beat-up bus |
Still we’re high and dry inside and there’s a rainbow ahead of us |
People say we’re crazy to go searching for a pot of gold |
But we got to chase that dream before we’re too damn old |
Last show’s in Kentucky, took the bus on out of town |
All the girls were waving come back, so we were Texas Bound |
Fast food and motel rooms, sure got the best of me |
But looking back if you ask me, hell I’d do it for free |
Yeah cause some times we do |
Yeah sometimes we do |
Down the road so many miles to go, who knows what city’s next |
Who knows what lies ahead, who knows… |
