The Road Songtext
von The Back Porch Majority

This road winds down through the valley
Through the warm green meadows I call home
Turn around, and it leads ′cross the mountain
Where the wind keeps tellin' me to roam.

Down this road, there′s a fire always burnin'
There's a place at the table set for me.
It′s the same road that leads way over yonder
Where there′s such a lot of world I'd like to see.

There′s so much of this whole world I'd like to see.


Tell mama not to worry
I couldn′t bear to know I made her cry.
Tell my papa, if you see him
I tried, but I just couldn't say goodbye.

I long to see the places they call somewhere.
It′s been my dream ever since my life began.
And someday, when my wand'rin' days are over
I′ll be comin′ down this road.

You'll see me walkin′ down this road
I'll be comin′ down this road a better man.
