Nowhere Road

Ow

There's a road in Oklahoma

Straighter than a preacher

Longer than a memory

And it goes forever onward

It's been a good teacher

For a lot o' country boys like me

I push that load from here to someday

I'll push as long as I'm alive

But I don't know how long I'll last

'Cause it's just a road, ain't no highway

I'm blowin' by the double five

I know I'm goin' way too fast

I've been down this road just searchin' for the end

It don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again

Leaves you lonely and cold, standin' on the shoulder

But you've come too far to go back home

So you're walkin' on a nowhere road

Some folks say if you keep rollin'

And you keep it on the yellow line

It'll take you to the big highway

But there's a toll to pay if you're going

The keeper at the gate is blind

So you better be prepared to pay

I've been down this road just searchin' for the end

It don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again

Leaves you lonely and cold, standin' on the shoulder

But you've come too far to go back home

So you're walkin' on a nowhere road

Hey
