Eminence Ensemble - The Road Lyrics

Rig packed up ready to ride
Twenty-thousand miles 'cross the country side
It might not be pretty, but it won't be dull
The moments you create will define your soul
Our nine-to-five is our late night drive
Just a few more hours 'til we rest our eyes
You won't fly if you never try
Don't sit back and watch the clock as your dreams go by

I'm sorry mama but it's time to go
You'll hear my voice again on the radio
Well I ain't got money but I got my guitar
And just enough gas to make it to the next bar

I'm sorry baby but it's time to leave
To live the life you've got to see to believe
Struggling just to stay alive
'Cause the road only lets us go sixty-five

You've got money
But you ain't got no wealth
Your pain is a rain that you brought on yourself
Venue lied and we never got paid
But you should've seen their faces when we got on the stage
Long nights, long days
One foot in the saddle and one foot in the grave
Do what you love, don't hear what they say
You've got to make your life your own way

I'm sorry mama but it's time to go
You'll hear my voice again on the radio
Well I ain't got money but I got my guitar
And just enough gas to make it to the next bar

I'm sorry baby but it's time to leave
To live the life you've got to see to believe
Struggling just to stay alive
'Cause the road only lets us go sixty-five

I'm sorry mama but it's time to go
You'll hear my voice again on the radio
Well I ain't got money but I got my guitar
And just enough gas to make it to the next bar

I'm sorry baby but it's time to leave
To live the life you've got to see to believe
Struggling just to stay alive
'Cause the road only lets us go sixty-five
