There's the sky, here's the earth |
|
This is the road for all it's worth |
|
It's a ribbon, it's a river, it's a wave |
|
It's an arrow and it's a snake |
|
It's asleep and it's awake |
|
And it stretches from the cradle to the grave |
|
Thank God for the road |
|
And the hubcaps and the headlights |
|
And the mudflaps and the taillights |
|
And the dim lights and the bright lights |
|
Thank God for the road |
|
And the miles that come between us |
|
The little rains that come to clean us |
|
The guardian angels who have seen us |
|
Thank God for the road |
|
No matter what it takes to drive it |
|
Life and death can seem so private |
|
Still you think you will survive it |
|
Thank God for the road |
|
There's the sky, here's the earth |
|
This is the road for all it's worth |
|
It's a ribbon, it's a river, it's a wave |
|
It's an arrow and it's a snake |
|
It's asleep and it's awake |
|
And it stretches from the cradle to the grave |
|
Thank God for the road |
|
The soft shoulders you can cry on |
|
The hard nerves you rely on |
|
The fast curves you can die on |
|
Thank God for the road |
|
And the stars that shine above it |
|
No matter what you once thought of it |
|
You always knew you'd come to love it |
|
Thank God for the road |
|
And those old telephone poles |
|
A cup of coffee and a sweet roll |
|
When you're trying to save your own soul |
|
Thank God for the road |
