Ain't That Always The Way

(앨범: The Dirt Road - 1992)

Jeany loved Charlie with all of her might
But she missed the boy bad when he was working all night
Every day was the same but she wanted more
So Jeany took to leaving out of every door saying

Sometimes the wheels just start rolling
Don't always know where you're going
May not leave you with a whole lot to say, yeah, yeah
But baby, ain't that always the way
Oh baby, ain't that always the way

Reverend Jim was a-preaching one night
He was a-laying his hands a-just a little too tight
Folks didn't know that those streets made of gold
Were paved with their money
Jim headed down the road, singing

Sometimes the wheels just start rolling
Don't always know where you're going
May not leave you with a whole lot to say, yeah, yeah
But baby, ain't that always the way
Oh baby, ain't that always the way

Tommy practiced hard just to play the guitar
Gonna make a million dollars, gonna be a big star
He fell in love with Betty and that all changed
He's happy playing his guitar out on the front porch swing, singing

Sometimes the wheels just start rolling
Don't always know where you're going
May not leave you with a whole lot to say, yeah, yeah
But baby, ain't that always the way
Oh baby, ain't that always the way
