There's a sad, young wifeNever had a lifeHer mother said she'd married young.And her husband's a foolNever listened toAll the things she's never done.So she packs up that ol' Ford Fairlane.She's had about all she can bear.A suitcase, a hope, and a hard rain.She's gonna find it all somewhere.On the roadWhere the night is black.On the roadWhere you don't look back.There's a white line in the distance.Where it's goin' nobody knows.If it's anywhere, you'll find itOn the road.There's a teenage kidNo matter what he didNobody ever understands.And he don't measure upAnd he's had enoughCan't be his Daddy's little man.SongtexteSo he pulls out that hot rod Chevy.Puts in his favorite cassette.He ain't goin' to no college.The world is waitin' up ahead.On the roadWhere the night is black.On the roadWhere you don't look back.There's a white line in the distance.Where it's goin' nobody knows.If it's anywhere, you'll find itOn the road.Eddie and Jill got time to killThe kids, they never come around.And a gold-plated watch was all he gotWhen the company shut his life down.So he takes down that old Airstream.They don't know where they're bound.Sixty five years and still searchingFor somethin' that they never found.On the roadWhere the night is black.On the roadWhere you don't look back.There's a white line in the distance.Where it's goin' nobody knows.If it's anywhere, you'll find it.On the road.On the road.On the road.
