Road To Nowhere
I tried to hang on for as long as I could
But now I can see that it just aint no good
Our love it has wasted
Right down to the core
Whatever we had
We dont have anymore
Youve got to get off a road to nowhere
Youve got to get off a road to nowhere
Well I tried and I tried to make things work out right
But I guess were two people who cant help but fight
Your eyes they are open
And oh so are mine
We both need our freedom
Dont you think its about time
Im trying to get off this road to nowhere
Im trying to get off this road to nowhere
(lead)
Thank you for the good times weve had in the past
But we both know enough to know good times dont last
Baby youre just no good for me
And Im no good for you
Lets not waste our time talkin
We both know what to do
Weve got to get off this road to nowhere
Its time to get off this road to nowhere
Youve got to get off this road to nowhere
Weve got to get off this road to nowhere

Road To Nowhere
Well we know where were goin
But we dont know where weve been
And we know what were knowin
But we cant say what weve seen
And were not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out
Were on a road to nowhere
Come on inside
Takin that ride to nowhere
Well take that ride
Im feelin okay this mornin
And you know,
Were on the road to paradise
Here we go, here we go
Chorus
Maybe you wonder where you are
I dont care
Here is where time is on our side
Take you there...take you there
Were on a road to nowhere
Were on a road to nowhere
Were on a road to nowhere
Theres a city in my mind
Come along and take that ride
And its all right, baby, its all right
And its very far away
But its growing day by day
And its all right, baby, its all right
They can tell you what to do
But theyll make a fool of you
And its all right, baby, its all right
Were on a road to nowhere

Dont Think Twice, Its Alright
Well it aint no use to sit and wonder why babe
If you dont know by now
It aint no use to sit and wonder why babe
It dont matter anyhow
When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and Ill be gone
Youre the reason Im traveling on
And dont think twice, its alright
Aint no use in turning on your light babe
Its a light Ive never known
There aint no use in turning on your light baby
Im on the dark side of the road
I wish there was something you could do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talking anyway
And dont think twice, its alright
Aint no use in calling out my name now
Like youve never done before
Aint no use in calling out my name now
I cant hear you anymore
Thinking and wondering all the way down the road
I once loved a woman, a child, Im told
I gave her my heart, she wanted my soul
And dont think twice, its alright
Im going down that long lonesome road babe
Where Im bound I cant tell
But goodbye is too good a word babe
So Ill just say fare thee well
I aint saying you treated me unkind
Coulda done better but I dont mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
And dont think twice, its alright
And dont think twice, its alright

Help Me Down That Road
I feel so close to you
cos you know you always do
Help me down that road
I go to slepp at night
Feeling that its alright
cos you help me down that road
When I feel Ive been beat
You get me on my feet
You help me spread that heavy load
Now that I realize
Just where our friendship lies
It will help me down that road
You think youve seen my best
But you aint seen nothin yet
Since you, help me down that road
When life is a bitter sweet
You mix it up a treat
Yeah, youre the best pick up I know
If you dont satisfy
Dont give me the evil eye
It wont help me down that road
When I aint doin so well
You never kiss and tell
You just help me down that road
Just when Im feelin sick
You give my heart a kick
Then I dont feel so all alone
When I cant get it right
Just when the ends in sight
Yes you help me down that road
I know youll be callin me
To see you that Im ok
I know that you will always be
With me night and day
I could live in poverty, I could be in pain
I know that youd be there with me
To you its all the same

Back On The Road Again
Please dont hate me mama for what Im about to do
But the good times weve had together are just about now through
Please dont misunderstand me, I hate to see you cry
But I think that it might look better if I told you now goodbye
Im back on the road again, its time I leave you now
And maybe Ill see you next time, that Im around
Until then I hope your happy baby and good times come your way
Im back on the road again, Im on my way
Well Ive loved you since the day I met you and Ill love you till the day I die
But we both know the life Im livin and we both know the reason why
That Ive got to leave ya mama and Ive got to leave today
But you know that Ill see you next time that I come through your town to play

Further On (Up The Road)
Where the road is dark
And the seat is soaked
Where the gun is cocked
And the bullets cold
Where the miles are marked in blood and gold
Ill meet you further on up the road
Got on my dead mans suit
And my smilin skull ring
My lucky graveyard boots
And a song to sing
I got a song to sing, keep me out of the cold
And Ill meet you further on up the road
Further on up the road
Further on up the road
Where the way is dark
And the night is cold
But one sunny morning well rise, I know
And Ill meet you further on up the road
Well I been out in the desert
Was doin my time
Searching through the dust
Looking for a sign
If theres a light up ahead
Well, buddy, I dont know
But I got this fever
Burning in my soul
So lets take the good times as they come
And Ill meet you further on up the road
Further on up the road
Further on up the road
Where the way is dark
And the night is cold
One sunny morning well rise, I know
And Ill meet you further on up the road
One sunny morning well rise, I know
And Ill meet you further on up the road
Yeah Ill meet you further on up the road
Well Ill meet you further on up the road

Dont think twice, its all right
And it aint no use in calling out my name, gal
Like youve never done before
It aint no use in calling out my name, gal
I cant hear you anymore
Im thinking and a wondering, walking down that road
I once loved a woman - a child Im told
Gave her my heart, but she wanted my soul
Dont think twice, its all right
So long, honey-babe
Where i'm bound, I can't tell
Goodbye is too good a word babe
Ill just say, fare thee well
I aint saying you treated me unkind
You couldve done better, but I dont mind
You just kind of wasted my precious time
Dont think twice, its all right

White Line
I came to you, when I needed a rest
You took my love, and put it to the test
I saw some things, that I never would have guessed
Feel like a railroad, I pulled a whole load behind.
That old white line is friend of mine
And its good time weve been making
Right now Im rollin down the open road
And the daylight will soon be breaking.
I was adrift on a river of pride
It seemed like such a long easy ride
You were my raft but I let you slide
Ive been down but Im coming back up again.
And Im rollin down the open road
Where the daylight will soon be breaking
Right now Im thinking bout these things that I know
But its good time that weve been making.

The Times Youve Come
In the time weve known
That we each are a part of one another
Weve lost as much as we have won
And as our lives have grown
We have found that it only brings us pain
That hangs on to the things that we have done
Still I love the times youve come
When you went away
Taking all that Id built my false road on
I dropped my life and couldnt find the pieces
Now you come and go
And its hard but I feel my strength returning
Well see how far this new road reaches
Well see a little more each time we come
Now everybodys gonna tell you its not worth it
Everybodys gotta show you their own thing
You might try to find your way up around it
But the need for love will still remain
Now were lying here
So safe in the ruins of our pleasures
Laughter marks the place where we have fallen
And our lives are near
So it wouldnt occur to us to wonder
Is this the past or the future that is calling
You know Ive loved these times youve come.

Sun C/79
Sun is the reason
And the world it will bloom
Cause sun lights the sky
And the sun lights the moon
Sun is the reason
All the happy trees are green
Then who can explain
The light in your dream
Sit you down
Sit you down young gentleman
Theres something I want you to know
You keep on asking me
You keep on asking me why
Why are we here?
It started a long time ago
Me and your mum on the night
Yeh yeh yeh ..we met
I was on the road again
She was in c79
Ill never never forget
Ill never forget that night no..
We met in a back road
Behind the stage
She had the best figure by far
Huh a thousand hours Ive looked at her eyes but i
Still dont know what color they are
Me & your mum on the night
Oh lord. we met
I was on the road again
She was in c79
She was a junkie then
And I was having a good time
Back on the road again
Oh momma I was on the road again
Back in suite 79
Ill never never forget
Ill never forget that time
Back on the road again
Oh Im travelling that line
I was a pop star then
Im still having a good time

End Of The Road
(t. cerney, e. king, g. rossington, j. van zant)
It was a late night show in georgia
We were on the ol highway
We know weve lost some friends
And family on the way
But you know we all feel better
And it makes it worth our time
To know our bus is rollin towards
That mason-dixon line
(chorus)
Oh we cant seem to find the end of the road
Roots never grow on the seeds that we sow
Weve still got our music and so many miles to go
You know we cant seem to find the end of the road
We know weve got a legacy thats hard to live up to
But theres still a lot of reasons
Why we play these songs for you
Its a family tradition and as long as were around
That freebird keeps on flyin and it never will come down
(repeat chorus)
Oh we cant seem to find the end of the road
Roots never grow on the seeds that we sow
We cant seem to find the end of the road
No matter how far we travel it always seems to slow
We still got our music and so many miles to go
You know we cant seem to find lord the end of the road

Bound No’th Blues
Goin’ down the road, Lawd,
Goin’ down the road.
Down the road, Lawd,
Way,way down the road.
Got to find somebody
To help me carry this load.
Road’s in front o’ me,
Nothin’ to do but walk.
Road’s in front of me,
Walk…an’ walk…an’ walk.
I’d like to meet a good friend
To come along an’ talk.
Hates to be lonely,
Lawd, I hates to be sad.
Says I hates to be lonely,
Hates to be lonely an’ sad,
But ever friend you finds seems
Like they try to do you bad.
Road, road, road, O!
Road, road…road…road, road!
Road, road, road, O!
On the no’thern road.
These Mississippi towns ain’t
Fit fer a hoppin’ toad.

I Dont Know
Im nothing fancy
Im nothing special thats true
But I know what your thinkin
Cuz Im thinkin that same thing too
Now youd like everything to go your way
And I should probably say everything youd like me to say
But thats not me and baby that just wouldnt be you
You better watch how long you wait
Cuz baby you might wait too long
[chorus]
I dont know if I could make you happy
And I dont know if I could make you cry
I dont know if the clock stops at midnight
I cant see past forever but together we can fly
Together we can fly
Now lets pretend for a while that weve got no place to be
Youve been broken before but baby that wasnt me
Now Im trying to ask you to come
To that same old place that youve been runnin from
Weve been down that road
You know theres nothing to see
You better watch how long you wait
Cuz baby you might wait too
[repeat chorus]
Bay there no use in waiting
I can see that your hopes are fading
They tell me that time is precious baby
Why do you keep wastin time?

Somewhere Down The Road
We had the right love
At the wrong time
Guess I always knew inside
I wouldnt have you for a long time
Those dreams of yours
Are shining on distant shores
And if theyre calling you away
I have no right to make you stay,
But somewhere down the road
Our roads are gonna cross again
It doesnt really matter when
But somewhere down the road
I know that heart of yours
Will come to see
That you belong with me
Sometimes goodbyes are not forever
It doesnt matter if youre gone
I still believe in us together
I understand more than you think I can
You have to go out on your own
So you can find your way back home
* and somewhere down the road
Letting go is just another way to say
Ill always love you so
We had the right love
At the wrong time
Maybe weve only just begun
Maybe the best is yet to come
Cause somewhere down the road

Our Time Is Coming
(kix brooks/ronnie dunn)
Times are hard and the moneys tight
Day to day we fight the fight
Nothing new, the same old grind
Uphill all the way
Boss man says forget the raise
Preacher says to keep the faith
Good things come to those who wait
Tomorrows another day
Our time is coming
Where or when the good lord only knows
Our time is coming
When this road were on will turn to the street of gold
As long as we keep love alive
Something tells me well survive
Its the little things thatll get us by
And hold us together
I feel it when you hold me close
Baby we got more than most
Steady through the highs and lows
Well go on forever
Our time is coming
Where or when the good lord only knows
Our time is coming
When this road were on will turn to the street of gold
Our time is coming
Where or when the good lord only knows
Our time is coming
When this road were on will turn to the street of gold
When this road were on will turn to the street of gold
