The Lowdown Drifters - The Road

Pulled out of Salt Lake, Texas bound
Down Highway 6 to the 191
As I rolled through the Navajo nation
My hearts sinking like the setting sun

You she caught me when I was in Boise
She told me not to bother coming back home
She said it before but this time it was different
Because her words were so damn cold

Oh and I, Oh I
I should have been there and I
Should of showed her I cared
Instead of out here all alone
Having this long gone love affair with the road
Now this road don't feel like home anymore.

I pulled into Ft Worth on a Friday Night
I thought I'd go kick around cow town
But I ain't feeling no love at the love shack tonight
Man this place is bringing me down

Oh and I, Oh I
I should have been there and I
Should of showed her I cared
Instead of out here all alone
Having this long gone love affair with the road
Now this road don't feel like home anymore

I used to be at home out here
Burning diesel and shifting gears
Now I every song I hear reminds me of you
We were so much in love
How'd things go and get so messed up
Now I see your face everywhere I look

Oh and I, Oh I
I should have been there and I
Should of showed her I cared
Instead of out here all alone
Having this long gone love affair with the road
Oh and I, Oh I
I should have been there
And I
Should of showed you I cared
Oh and I, Oh I
I should have been there
And I, Oh I
