Lyrics
I left my home and headed for the sun
Road to success has got me on the run
Mama says it's paved with pain
There's a lot to lose but there's nothing much to gain
Those I've loved have suffered for it
I don't know how they endure it
But me I know that there's no other way
I'm headed for a land called glory
And I know that I'm a different story
Than those I pass on by most every day
Woa oh every day
But I cannot get my eyes up off the road
I hope this place I'm going is made of gold
Cuz there isn't time to ease my mind, there isn't time to love
The empty cars, the lonely bars, the road
Oh the road
The road
How can you stop the road
Well sometimes you've got to stop for fuel
So I asked directions from the happy fool
And He told me son, you passed it long ago
Well I just laughed at him and said well who are you
But somewhere deep inside
I know it's true
Cause I cannot get my eyes up off the road
I hope this place I'm going is made of gold
Cuz there isn't time to ease my mind
There isn't time to love
The empty cars, lonely bars, the road
Oh the road
The road
How can you stop the road
In some other time
Some other day
You will be mine
And I will be long to myself
In some other time my dear
Hmmmmm
But I cannot get my eyes up off the road
I hope this place I'm going is made of gold
Cuz there isn't time to ease my mind
There isn't time to love
The empty cars the lonely bars, the road
Oh the road
The road
How can you stop the road
