David Ackles - Out on the Road lyrics



I met a man.
Such a sad old boy
In a waterfront bar.
And he asked me, "Young man, don't you think you've gone too far?"
"No." I told him, "No. I got so much more livin' I want to do."
It was then he said, "I know. I've been afraid like you."

I met a woman.
Such a poor old lady
In a hotel room.
And she asked me, "Young man, don't ya think you better run home soon?"
"No." I told her, "No. You see I got no brown eyes to run home to."
It was then she said, "I know. I've been afraid like you."

Well, if everybody knows, if everybody sees that fear is a heavy load.
Then they ought to know I got to stay out on the road.
And if they do not understand how we got to lend a hand.
Then all I can do is pray, please let me stay out on the road.

I met a man.
A fine young man
In a broken down jail.
And he told me, "Friend, don't be afraid to live. You know it doesn't matter if you fail."
Then he smiled.
He smiled and I started into cry.
It was then he said, "Oh I know. I've been afraid to die."

Well, if everybody knows, if everybody sees that fear is a heavy load.
Then they ought to know I got to stay out on the road.
And if they do not understand how we got to, we got to lend a helping hand.
All I can do is pray, Lord let me stay out on the road.

Well, if everybody knows, if everybody sees that fear, fear is a heavy load.
Then you ought to know I got to, I got to stay out on the road.
And if you do not understand how we got to, we got to lend a helping hand.
Then all I can do is pray, please let me stay out on the road.
