The gravel flies up off the tires
|
Last night I caught my baby lying
|
She said that she loved me
|
Said she'd be true
|
I turned around and she had found somebody new
|
I coulda took it
|
I woulda tried
|
But hey, she wouldn't even tell me why
|
And there ain't no easy road
|
It doesn't matter who you are or who you know
|
Listen son,
|
There's just one thing I know
|
There ain't no easy road
|
I couldn't believe my very eyes
|
Out on the street with some other guy
|
I made the scene
|
The coppers came
|
Threw me in jail I told 'em I was not to blame
|
They called my sister
|
Took over my bail
|
She just said "Mister, I would hope that you would know by now"
|
And there ain't no easy road
|
It doesn't matter who you are or who you know
|
Listen son,
|
There's just one thing I know
|
There ain't no easy road
|
The whistle wails
|
The train rolls on
|
I guess I'll go back to where I come from
|
To where my Daddy sits
|
On a little porch
|
On a little farm
|
In a little town
|
That they call Jerico
|
He always told me
|
Son, you should know
|
The walls always tumble down
|
Just when you're sure that they won't
|
And there ain't no easy road
|
Doesn't matter who you are or who you know
|
Listen son,
|
There's just one thing I know
|
There ain't no easy road
|
Listen son,
|
There's just one thing I know
|
There ain't no easy road
|
