Rugged Road

(album: Handful Of Blues - 1995)

When I lost my way, found myself on rugged road
Hey, with a head full of trouble carrying a heavy, heavy load
I was stumbling blind, going down that rugged road
And no one could help me, I had to walk that road alone

When I met my friend, he said brother, "Can I help you, please?"
Said, "I know you got some worries, maybe some that I can ease?
It's a long, long way and you might need some company"
But I just couldn't hear him and he just let me be

And my father before me, walked this road the same as I
Yeah, he had his bad and his good times, one day had to die
People, I made my way, now, I'm standing in the sun
Yeah, with my struggle behind me, my life has just begun
Yeah, my life has just begun
