Long Lonely Road

[00:00.07] Pile in the church pew rows
[00:03.66] Gran made the best yeast rolls
[00:07.74] Gospel of stories told
[00:10.91] 'Bout the one way to save your soul
[00:15.58] Drag out the old guitar
[00:19.31] Gas up that old Ford car
[00:22.93] We're gon' hit the dusty road
[00:27.05] Four wheels can bear the load
[00:29.95] It's been a long
[00:32.92] It's been a long, long, long, lonely road
[00:42.16] Pops earned his bread in dust
[00:45.48] But his hard-working hands fed us
[00:49.93] Sun up 'til sun sank down
[00:53.46] His body worked to the ground
[00:57.45] Folks thought we had it made
[01:00.59] 'Cause we always kept a face
[01:04.82] Meanwhile there's bills to pay
[01:08.26] And the stack growing every day
[01:11.58] It's been a long
[01:14.35] It's been a long, long
[01:16.56] Been a long, long, long, long, lonely road
[01:25.00] My, my, my, it's been a long
[01:29.67] Been a long, long
[01:31.33] Been a long, long, long, long, lonely road
[02:11.20] Soon as I turned 18
[02:15.07] I packed up, for grass is green
[02:18.55] New York or Tennessee
[02:21.63] Where I am is where I'll be
[02:25.40] Darlin', tell me about your plans
[02:29.45] And I'll find a place in mind
[02:33.82] Surely there'd be a way
[02:36.87] To move towards a brighter day
[02:39.71] It's been a long
[02:42.97] It's been a long, long
[02:44.98] Been a long, long, long, long, lonely road
[02:52.99] My, my, my, it's been a long
[02:57.67] Been a long, long
[02:59.51] Been a long, long, long, long, lonely road
[03:07.74] My, my, my, it's been a long
[03:12.41] Been a long, long, long, long, lonely road
[03:24.61] One person's path unpaid
[03:28.28] Went towards the path that saved
[03:32.40] These are the songs you sing
[03:35.45] In the search for the grass that's green
[03:39.35] It's been a long
[03:42.45] Been a long, long, long, lonely road
[03:49.75]
