Well I'll tell you one thing that I know You don't face your demons down You gotta grapple 'em Jack and pin 'em to the ground The devil may care, maybe god he won't You better make sure you check on the do's and the don'ts Crawl up a moutain To reach where the eagles fly To show you can glimpse from the mountian top where the soul of the muse might ride And if you put it all together You won't have to look around You know you cast a long shadow on the ground Then one day I could tell my tracks About the holes in the soles of my shoes And thats the day I said I'm gonna make the news And fallen back in the garden The days so long ago Somewhere in the memory The sun shines on you boy And playing in the Arroyo's where the american rivers flow SongtexteFrom the Appalachians Down to the Delta Roads A man can think so long His brain could well explode The strings runnin' through the junctions A king comes down the road And if you put it all together You won't have to look around You know you cast a long shadow on the ground Listen to the country The night jar and the bell Listen to the night stream lineup Soundin' like the wolves of hell Head for the water The waters of the cleansing spell It was always our destination On the express of the ne'ver do wells And we rocked through Madison's city And we didn't even know she was there And when we hit the bumpers in Memphis Beale street didn't have no prayer And I hear punks talk of anarchy I hear hobo's on the railroads I hear mutterings on the chain gangs It was those men who built the roads And if you put it all together You didn't even once relent You cast a long shadow And that is your testament Somewhere in my soul There's always rock and roll Yeaaaah!
