A Ways To Go

[Verse 1] I hear the clock a-ticking See the sweat upon my brow I know my destination Nothing's going to stop me now I'm running on desire Baby I've got nerves of steel Coming down to the wire Lord above me guide the wheel [Chorus] Keep me in your prayers tonight I'll be weary upon that road I know the finish line's in sight But I still have a ways to go [Verse 2] There's a junkyard dog a-barking In the valley down below He's wanting me to stop And gather up a heavy load Ain't going to heed his call Ain't giving him the time of day You mangy mutt, once and for all I said I threw that stuff away [Chorus] Keep me in your prayers tonight I'll be weary upon that road I know the finish line's in sight But I still have a ways to go [Bridge] I won't have a bit of trouble Heading down the straight and true I'll fly solo on the double Into the yonder blue [Verse 3] I might need some intervention Out upon the icy turn In a foggy situation Squealing on a hairpin curve I'm running on desire Baby I've got nerves of steel Coming down to the wire Lord above me guide the wheel [Chorus] Keep me in your prayers tonight I'll be weary upon that road I know the finish line's in sight But I still have a ways to go Keep me in your prayers tonight I'll be weary upon that road I know the finish line's in sight But I still have a ways to go
