Back on the road, nothing but farm towns
Big city lights fading in the background
Fruit trees swaying, they go a hundred miles
Make a person start thinking about life's trials
And the seeds of time, and how they soon get to sow
Tom is singing Hold On and we keep on rolling
There's a time, a time for laughing and a time for crying
This past year too many good folks have been dying
All I can do is make the best of what you left me
Help tow the line, help lighten the load
And I don't understand about the wind and the weather
Or of God above and if things are getting better
I call my friends, we go on a bend
Cause you never know when you'll see them again
Is it just dumb luck when you make it to the end of the line?
I light my smoke, just to keep from crying
