Nowhere Road

[Verse 1]

There's a road in Oklahoma

Straighter than a preacher, longer than a memory

And it goes forever onward

It's been a good teacher for a lot of country boys like me

[Verse 2]

I push that load from here to someday

I'll push as long as I'm alive but I don't know how long I'll last

'Cause it's just a road, it ain't no highway

I'm blowing by the double five, I know I'm going way too fast

[Chorus]

I've been down this road just searching for the end

It don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again

Leaves you lonely and cold, standing on the shoulder

But you've come too far to go back home

So you're walking on a nowhere road

[Verse 3]

Some folks say, if you keep rolling

And you keep it on the yellow line, it'll take you on the big highway

But there's a toll to pay, if you're going

The keeper at the gate is blind so you better be prepared to pay

[Chorus]

I've been down this road just searching for the end

It don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again

Leaves you lonely and cold, standing on the shoulder

But you've come too far to go back home

So you're walking on a nowhere road
