On The Road

(альбом: On The Road - 1993)

There's a sad, young wife
Never had a life
Her mother said she'd married young
And her husband's a fool
Never listened to
All the things she's never done
So she packs up that ol' Ford Fairlane
She's had about all she can bear
A suitcase, a hope, and a hard rain
She's gonna find it all somewhere

On the road
Where the night is black
On the road
Where you don't look back
There's a white line in the distance
Where it's going nobody knows
If it's anywhere, you'll find it
On the road

There's a teenage kid
No matter what he did
Nobody ever understands
And he don't measure up
And he's had enough
Can't be his Daddy's little man
So he pulls out that hot rod Chevy
Puts in his favorite cassette
He ain't going to no college
The world is waiting up ahead

On the road
Where the night is black
On the road
Where you don't look back
There's a white line in the distance
Where it's going nobody knows
If it's anywhere, you'll find it
On the road

Eddie and Jill got time to kill
The kids, they never come around
And a gold-plated watch was all he got
When the company shut his life down
So he takes down that old Airstream
They don't know where they're bound
Sixty five years and still searching
For something that they never found

On the road
Where the night is black
On the road
Where you don't look back
There's a white line in the distance
Where it's going nobody knows
If it's anywhere, you'll find it
On the road
On the road
On the road
