[SideRoad.mp3] (rough demo)
ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
Crow's on the roost
And the rooster's crowin'
Farm through the fog
Is barely showin'
So hard leaving
Not saying goodbye
The time has come
For me to fly
I've become part of the road
I just keep on going
Cows crowd to the fence
To watch me pass
I guess their jealous
I've a bit more class
Woke up from a bed of hay
Can hear trucks move miles away
Bought some food at a grocery store
And ate it on the grass
Across the prairies
There are such huge skies
Till past the foothills
Where the rockies rise
Towns around grain elevators
Grey snowfences rotting
Through the years
I've been on this road so long
I can see it with closed eyes
