Keep Me On the Road
I set out to see the mountain
And her sweet sunrise
Never thought I’d make it home again
It took a lot of tries
I set out to see the valleys
Their shadows sympathize
I’ve been down about every road
So many asked me why
Some folks worry about the dollar
And the life they think they’re owed
I choose to live life rollin’ free
Just keep me on the road
Spent too much time
In a soul I must have borrowed
Lord, won’t you see the saint in me
Just keep me on the road
I set out to see the cities
That light up the midnight skies
The silence that never sleeps
No matter how hard it tries
I set out to see the countryside
Rows of grain somehow baptize
Keeps you on the straight and narrow
Till you gaze into a runaway angel’s eyes
Some folks worry about the dollar
And the life they think they’re owed
I choose to live life rollin’ free
Just keep me on the road
Spent too much time
In a soul I must have borrowed
Lord, won’t you see the saint in me
Just keep me on the road
