The Road

Headlights, white lights, black tar rivers Dragging me around this country as it withers The billboards, signposts, standing in the way Tell of the state of the nations, that we find today And we play and we play To every day, every day To every day In the front rooms of old towns far from the city With beat up guitars and hearts full of pity The people gather round singing songs from everywhere Torn from the nation, left without a care And we play and we play To every day, every day To every day And we'll rid the bloody world for a moment in a word And we'll rid the bloody world 'cause The words that you heard when you were young will always stay The one's that always stay make the world go away The words that you heard when you were young will always stay The one's that always stay make the world go away Go away Warm night, clear sky, European town Outside the bars singing their hearts out to a crowd Open boots, violin, banjo and a voice The Exiled buskers,they´re happy with their choice And we play and we play To every day, every day To every day And we'll rid the bloody world for a moment in a word And we'll rid the bloody world 'cause The words that you heard when you were young will always stay The one's that always stay make the world go away The words that you heard when you were young will always stay The one's that always stay make the world go away Go away And we play and we play To every day, every day Every day --- The Road - The Levellers
