On The Road - Lee Roy Parnell

作词：Bob McDill

作曲：Bob McDill

There's a sad young wife

Never had a life

Her mother said

She'd married young

And her husband's a fool

Never listened to

All the things

She's never done

So she packs up that ol'

Ford fairlane

She's had about all she can bear

A suitcase a hope and a hard rain

She's gonna find it all somewhere

On the road

Where the night is black

On the road

Where you don't look back

There's a white line

In the distance

Where it's goin'

Nobody knows

If it's anywhere

You'll find it

On the road

There's a teenage kid

No matter what he did

Nobody ever understands

And he don't mellery up

And he's had enough

Can't be his

Daddy's little man

So he pulls

Out that hot rod chevy

Puts in his favorite cassette

He ain't goin' to no college

The world is waitin' up ahead

On the road

Where the night is black

On the road

Where you don't look back

There's a white line

In the distance

Where it's goin'

Nobody knows

If it's anywhere

You'll find it

On the road

Eddie and jill got time to kill

The kids they never come around

And a gold plated

Watch was all he got

When the company shut his life down

So he takes down

That old airstream

They don't know

Where they're bound

Sixty five years and

Still searching

For somethin' that they never found

On the road

Where the night is black

On the road

Where you don't look back

There's a white line

In the distance

Where it's goin'

Nobody knows

If it's anywhere

You'll find it

On the road

On the road

On the road
