Country Road Songtext
von Jack Johnson

We′re gonna play a song that Paula wrote
And this is, uh, one of my favorite songs
Alright, one, two, one, two, three, four

Head-on collision on a two-lane country road
Lord, I pray, let them be safe
No turning back, I'm just a mile away from home
Sit here waiting, let me be patient

Sometimes it′s hard to ease my mind to realize
You're always with me, waiting, willing
To hear my prayers, my hopes, my dreams, my every need
I pray for light in times of darkness

What's meant to be will always be, though I control my destiny
Free will you gave me even though you made me
Careful of the things you do, it eventually comes back to you
Universal law, Babylon shall fall


Sometimes it′s hard to ease my mind to realize
You′re always with me, waiting, willing
To hear my prayers, my hopes, my dreams, my every need
I pray for peace in times of war

Destruction of civilizations past is consequence of forests thrashed
The air we breathe, a gift from the trees
What goes up must come back down, what goes around comes back around
The things you do get done unto you

Sometimes it's hard to ease my mind to realize
You′re always with me, waiting, willing
To hear my prayers, my hopes, my dreams, my every need (every need)
I pray for peace in times of war

Universal law, Babylon shall fall
The things you do shall be done unto you

Paula!
Aloha
