The Road Song

Chorus:

This is a song, a song, a song for the road, (2x)

When you're at the the end of the highway

  and you don't know where to go, to go, to go.



You travel for the money

And you're missin your honey

Cause the road is your home

Tho' the scenery changes.

Carrying your bag and your walkin shoes,

Watched over by a thousand angels.



Repeat chorus



You miss your kids,

But you have a picture of them in your wallet.

Travelin or dyin,

Yeah, it's whatever you call it.

May there be friendly skies to guide you,

And someone beside you... who knows the way.



Repeat chorus



Over the hills and thru the mountains,

I've found a steady friend-

The open air and the cloudless sky,

Yet I find myself lonely again.

I look up and see nothing but blue, blue, blue,

And it's callin me back home to you.

I wrote this song during my John Denver phase (which lasted about a week), so the melody may sound of his influence.  hehe."May there be friendly skies to guide you!"
