Miliage has taken its toll
Payed it with lines to show
You've had your fill of asphalt
Cough tremors and smoke filled doors
Look like the habit controls you
Look like you need a rest
Made it to the timber line
Don't know what to expect
God knows you don't need it
Too early you might be the one
Find yourself somewhere else
Too early in the sun
Song strains distant over
Barroom drink filled roar
The old folk singer lays it down
Not for long, no longer ignored
Spinning tales of temptation
Gambling days lost and won
No crimes committed here
Too much habit could be the one
God knows you don't need it
Too early you might be the one
To find yourself somewhere else
Too early in the sun
Never seen half of what you've seen
Real life never quite adds up
The road goes on when the faces don't
Word of mouth never tells the truth
Like to hear your story told
With a two-step beat and rhyme
Could be Tennessee or Texas
On and on, that road winds
God knows, you don't need it
Too early, you might be the one
To find yourself somewhere else
Too early in the sun
Payed it with lines to show
You've had your fill of asphalt
Cough tremors and smoke filled doors
Look like the habit controls you
Look like you need a rest
Made it to the timber line
Don't know what to expect
Too early you might be the one
Find yourself somewhere else
Too early in the sun
Barroom drink filled roar
The old folk singer lays it down
Not for long, no longer ignored
Spinning tales of temptation
Gambling days lost and won
No crimes committed here
Too much habit could be the one
Too early you might be the one
To find yourself somewhere else
Too early in the sun
Real life never quite adds up
The road goes on when the faces don't
Word of mouth never tells the truth
Like to hear your story told
With a two-step beat and rhyme
Could be Tennessee or Texas
On and on, that road winds
Too early, you might be the one
To find yourself somewhere else
Too early in the sun

Great sing about trucking or being out on the road too long.
