Down That Dusty Trail |
When I was a young boy |
The only things that really mattered were |
Making friends and having fun |
Walkin' down the railroad track |
'Til you reached the river |
Turn around and head on back |
When the day is done |
Ain’t it like they always say |
Everybody goes their own way |
Nobody knows no one can tell |
It’s always been the same for me |
Guess it’s just the way it must be |
Headin' down that dusty trail |
When I was a young man |
The only things |
That got me goin' were |
Gettin' high and chasm' love |
Lyin' down beside my girl |
On the banks of the river |
With nothin' but some mustang wine |
And all the stars above |
It’s a twistin' turnin' windin' road |
I get lost and broken down |
I’m a stumbler and it won’t be long |
'Till stumble back around |
Since I became my own man |
Everything that matters to me is |
Making sure I’m staying true |
To my friends and the ones I love |
'Till cross that river |
All alone I’m movin' on Until my time is through |
