Down The Road

(album: Down The Road - 1973)

When I was a young man
Standing in the door
The room was dark and smoky
The smell of death before' me

Think I'll go down
Mama
Go on down the road
See what's going on
Down the road

Lots of friends and children
Laying in the grass
Hookah makes me crazy
Believe I'm going have to pass

Think I'll go down
Mama
Go on down the road
See what's going on
Down the road

Then you find your cocaine
Start to moving fast
Trip, stumble, fall, freeze up
Hope your body last

Think I'll go down
Mama
Go on down the road
See what's going on
Down the road

Drinking plenty good liquor
Bourbon twelve years old
Hero wine, just in time
Worst trip that I know

Think I'll go down
Mama
Take a pass
Go on down the road
See what's going on

Some people into Jesus
Other people into Zen
I'm just into every day
I don't hide from where I been

I just go down
Mama
Go on down the road
See what's going on
Down the road
Alright
