Rhythm of the Road

I'd rather be home, but I make my living on the go

Big silver eagle spreads her wings and drops us at another show

I think about holdin' my baby tonight as

I listen to the big wheels rolls

Three days into a six-week tour, gettin' in the rhythm of the road

We pick and sing, say goodnight, then we'll be flyin'

My world's a chain of one night stands

Strung together by the center line

I don't know where I'll wake up tomorrow, but I can't let the tempo slow

Every town's just another beat, livin' in the rhythm of the road

The rhythm of the road's got a mind of its own

If you fight it, it'll drive you insane

Like the clackity-clack of a railroad track

I'm rattlin' like an old freight train

Towns are flashin' by, the folks are wavin' hi

They all start to look the same

Got to stop for a minute, be glad I'm in it

Remember just why I came

Those highway signs, Lord, they keep me on the move

I think about givin' it up sometimes and gettin' in a different groove

But I just let the days slide by, get goin' with the flow

A 4/4 beat's the only time I keep livin' in the rhythm of the road

A 4/4 beat's the only time I keep livin' in the rhythm of the road

Livin' in the rhythm of the road
