Django Walker - Texas Blacktop Highway lyrics

rate me

I spent my whole life on the open road

That blacktop Texas highways all I know

Monday morning either rain or shine came early every week

Bills to pay many more deadlines to meet

Tried to fight the urge not to run away

Leaving all my problems left unpaid

But a good man does what he should do and take things face to face

So I guess I’ll have to fight that lonely highway for another week

Chorus

So I’m moving on

Cause I got dreams that I won’t let die

No road is left forgotten as I drive into the night

Try so hard to carry on the words that my daddy preached

But I guess I’ll half to fight that lonely highway for another week

Late night rodeo is my best friend

Talking of the places that I’ve never been

But I promise that I will see the world that I heard so much about

Wondering if over that next hill could be my way out

So I’m moving on

Cause I got dreams that I won’t let die

No road is left forgotten as I drive into the night

Try so hard to carry on the words that my daddy preached

But I guess I’ll half to fight that lonely highway for another week

I tried to find a place I could settle down

That blacktop Texas highway can’t be found

But about the time I get there and my suitcase is unpacked

These rolling wheels keep calling me back

So I’m moving on

Cause I got dreams that I won’t let die

No road is left forgotten as I drive into the night

Try so hard to carry on the words that my daddy preached

But I guess I’ll half to fight that lonely highway for another week
