Long Hard Road (1984)
When the world was on our radio hard work was on our minds We lived our day-to-day in plain dirt fashion With old overalls and cotton balls all strapped across your back Man, it's hard to make believe there ain't nothing wrong
But momma kept the Bible read and daddy kept our family fed And somewhere in between I must have grown Cause someday I was dreaming that a song that I was singing Takes me down the road to where I want to go Now I know it's a long hard road
Sometimes I remember when I stayed up late at night When the sun-up came we got up and went In the shadows of a working day our moonlight hours spent Singing songs along with grandma's radio Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Now I'm beating down an old blacktop road sleeping in a sack Living in my memories all in vain Cause those city lights ain't all that bright compared to what it's like To see lightning bugs go dancing in the rain
Momma played the guitar then and daddy made the saw blade bend And raindrops played the tin roof like a drum But I just kept on dreaming that a song that I was singing Takes me down the road to where my name is known Now I'm gone and it's a long hard road Yes I know it's a long hard road
