Nowhere Road

There's a road in Oklahoma Straighter than a preacher, longer than a memory And it goes forever onward It's been a good teacher for a lot of country boys like me I push that load from here to someday I'll push as long as I'm alive, but I don't know how long I'll last 'Cause it's just a road, it ain't no highway Blowin' by the double five, I know I'm goin' way too fast I've been down this road just searchin' for the end And it don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again Leaves you lonely and cold, standin' on the shoulder But you've come too far to go back home So you're walkin' on a nowhere road Some folks say, if you keep rollin' And keepin' in the yellow line, it'll take you to the big highway But there's a toll to pay, so if you're goin' The keeper at the gate is blind so you better be prepared to pay I've been down this road just searchin' for the end And it don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again Leaves you lonely and cold, standin' on the shoulder But you've come too far to go back home So you're walkin' on a nowhere road --- Nowhere Road - Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson
