Drinkin´ a black coffee In a little motel lobby Waitin´ on the band to come down I´ve been travelin´ across Texas In a little station wagon
Draggin´ a trailer around
I do the drivin´ They do the drinkin´ That´s how I keep us alive Now, we played a good show Last night in Waco Well, we still got an eight hour drive
If I ever get home I´ll still love the road Still love the way that it winds Now when the last song´s been played I´ll look back and say I sure had a beautiful time
[Instrumental]
Now we´re packed up and rollin´ Who cares where we´re goin´ The radio´s playin´ sweet country sounds Got the sun on my skin My hair´s in the wind And all of the windows rolled down
If I ever get home I´ll still love the road Still love the way that it winds When the last song´s been played I´ll look back and say I sure had a beautiful time
[Instrumental]
They´re havin´ a party In the back seat, oh Lordy
Looks like they´re all out of beer They´re laughin´ at a good jokes Rollin´ a good smoke Why don´t ya´ll pass that one up here
If I ever get home I´ll still love the road I´ll still love the way that it winds When the last song´s been played I´ll look back and say I sure had a beautiful time I sure had a beautiful time
