Rollin' Down (Lonely Road)

You got to find a way to live your life

Happy on your own

Love will only work my friend

When you're happy all alone

 

When you try to base you life

On a fleeting chance at love

You'll find yourself down in a hole

Unable to rise above

 

Listen to me my friend

I been down that lonely road

Rollin' down

Rollin' down

Rollin' down that lonely road

Rollin' down

Rollin' down

Rollin' down that lonely road

 

Then I found a way to stop

Lookin' for that little thing

That will fabricate that fallacy

That reality will never bring

 

And when I stopped to search for love

Love found me instead

It filled my heart and filled my soul

And it fixed my broken head

 

So listen to me my friend

I been down that lonely road

Rollin' down

Rollin' down

Rollin' down that lonely road

Rollin' down

Rollin' down

Rollin' down that lonely road

 

There's just one more thing I need to say

So that you'll truly know

You got to find a way, my friend

To shove your demons down below

 

So if you've put to rest my friend

The seeds that you have sewed

You'll finally find a way to leave

That ****** up lonely road

 

So listen to me my friend

I been down that lonely road

Rollin' down

Rollin' down

Rollin' down that lonely road

Rollin' down

Rollin' down

Rollin' down that lonely road

 

I been down

Rollin' down

I been down

Rollin' down

Rollin' down that lonely road

 

Now I'm off that road

Off that road

Off that road

Off that ****** up, low down, ***** lonely road
