Lyrics

THE ROAD
(Jason Matthews/Wynn Varble/Brandon Kinney)

Sometimes I just don't know
Where I'm at on the map and out the window
Countryside's flyin' by like this life I chose

Another load-in, another load-out
Pack it up and point the bus toward the next town
Out of time, say goodbye 'cause we can't slow down

No we can't slow down

It stretches out like a river through the darkness
The current takes you and it won't let go
Before you know it it's where your heart is
300 days of the year it's home sweet home
The road

I've got where I can't sleep
Without the rumble of the diesel underneath me
While the wheels hum a steel-belted melody

It sounds so sweet

It stretches out like a river through the darkness
The current takes you and it won't let go
Before you know it it's where your heart is
300 days of the year it's home sweet home
The road

Bridge: Oh I know I've been at least a million miles
But when that crowd sings along it makes it all worthwhile

It stretches out like a river through the darkness
The current takes you and it won't let go
Before you know it it's where your heart is
300 days of the year it's home sweet home
The road

Whoah-oh-oh-oh

Tag: Sometimes I just don't know
Where I'm at on the map and out the window
I've got where I can't sleep
Without the rumble of the diesel underneath me
