This Road

by Sam Houston

I've been on this road    so long I don't know

It's full of twists and turns    and damned old potholes

And this hoss that I've been riding    spooks and throws me all the time

With all things being equal    it's a wonder that I'm still alive

Trying to look ahead    through the fog and rain

Then take a look behind    and live it yet again

And time keeps rocking on  like an endless train

If you let it this old road will surely drive you insane

It's been here forever and will never go away

The best that you can hope for is to ride another day

Just lock and load   and always watch your back

And don't believe too much that they say

Too often it ain't easy and it's seldom ever smooth

And misery loves company like whiskey loves a fool

You can take it fast    or you can take it slow

But you got to watch your step on this road
