I REMEMBER THE NIGHT
MY DAD
STOPPED THE CAR
GOT OUT IN THE RAIN
AND CHANGED A
BLOWN-OUT TIRE
ON A CAR
FOR A FAMILY WITH
OUT-OF-STATE PLATES
I SAID DAD DID WE KNOW
THOSE FOLKS
AS THEY WAVED
AND DROVE
OUT OF SIGHT
HE JUST SMILED
AS HE STARTED THE CAR
HE SAID SON
NOT TILL TONIGHT
YOU SEE THE ROAD
YOU LEAVE BEHIND YOU
IS ANOTHER ROAD
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE
TO COME BACK DOWN
IT'S JUST THE WAY
THIS BIG OLD
WORLD TURNS 'ROUND
YOU'LL FIND
SOMEHOW SOMEWHERE
SOMEPLACE SOMETIME
YOU GOTTA
GO BACK DOWN
THE ROAD
YOU LEAVE BEHIND
STUCK OUT
ON A HIGHWAY
ONE NIGHT
MANY YEARS GONE BY
I HAD THE HOOD
OF MY TRUCK PULLED UP
MY OLD
GAS TANK WAS DRY
SOME OLD GUY
GETTIN' OFF
ON THE NIGHT SHIFT
PULLED UP
TO CHECK ON ME
HE SAID I BEEN
IN YOUR SHOES
BEFORE SON
AND IT'S NO PLACE TO BE
YOU SEE THE ROAD
YOU LEAVE BEHIND YOU
IS ANOTHER ROAD
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE
TO COME BACK DOWN
IT'S JUST THE WAY
THIS BIG OLD
WORLD TURNS 'ROUND
YOU'LL FIND
SOMEHOW SOMEWHERE
SOMEPLACE SOMETIME
YOU GOTTA
GO BACK DOWN
THE ROAD
YOU LEAVE BEHIND
I SAID WHAT DO
I OWE YOU FRIEND
YOU COULD EASILY HAVE
PASSED ME BY
HE SAID NEXT TIME
IT MIGHT BE ME SON
YOU DON'T
OWE ME A DIME
YOU SEE THE ROAD
YOU LEAVE BEHIND YOU
IS ANOTHER ROAD
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE
TO COME BACK DOWN
IT'S JUST THE WAY
THIS BIG OLD
WORLD TURNS 'ROUND
YOU'LL FIND
SOMEHOW SOMEWHERE
SOMEPLACE SOMETIME
YOU GOTTA
GO BACK DOWN
THE ROAD
YOU LEAVE BEHIND
DOWN THE ROAD
YOU LEAVE BEHIND
THE ROAD
YOU LEAVE BEHIND
IS THAT OLD ROAD
YOU LEAVE BEHIND
DOWN THE ROAD
YOU LEAVE BEHIND
