Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Long Hard Road слова песни
Way back in my memory theres a scene that I recallOf a little run-down cabin in the woodsWhere my dad never promised that our blue moon would turn goldBut he laid awake nights wishin that it would.When the world was on our radio, hard work was on our minds.We lived our day-to-day in plain dirt fashion,With ol overalls and cotton balls all strapped across your backMan, its hard to make believe there aint nothing wrong.But momma kept the Bible read and daddy kept our family fed,And somewhere in between I must have grownCause someday I was dreamin that a song that I was singinTakes me down the road to where I want to go.Now I know, its a long hard roadSometimes I remember when I stay up late at night,When the sun-up came, we got up and wentIn the shadows of a working day, our moonlight hours spentSingin songs along with grammas radio.Now Im beatin down a ol blacktop road, sleepin in a sack,Livin in my memories all in vaincause those city lights aint all that bright, compared to what its likeTo see lightning bugs go dancin in the rain.Momma played the guitar then, and daddy made the saw blade bend,And raindrops played the tin roof like a drum.But I just kept on dreamin that a song that I was singinTakes me down the road to where my name is known.Now Im gone, and its a long hard roadYes, I know, its a long hard road.
