That's a thought ;)
ok, I’m signing off and starting on chores.
Have a safe and fun weekend.
Here are the lyrics c 1995:
The Mother Road
My girlfriend lives in Missouri
On the Outskirts of St. Lou
She fights the River every Spring
Like all her neighbors do
She’s been to Tahiti
And she loves to figure skate
She says I’ll always have a place to sleep
If I’m ever in her state.
CHORUS:
I’ll always have a place to stay
When I ride the Mother Road
At every stop along the way
I find an open door
My friends all think that I am crazy
But they love me anyway
And when I ride that Mother Road
I’ll always have a place to stay.
My cousin lives near Tulsa
Right off Rt 66
In the hometown of Will Rogers
In the Oklahoma Sticks
There ain’t no musical instrument
That the gal can’t play
She says I’ll always have a place to sleep
If I’m ever out that way.
CHORUS:
I’ll always have a place to stay
When I ride the Mother Road
At every stop along the way
I find an open door
My friends all think that I am crazy
But they love me anyway
And when I ride that Mother Road
I’ll always have a place to stay.
(Bridge)
Old motels on the auction block
Ancient symbols carved in the rock
Big Empty sky, except for a hawk,
Looks like somebody turned back the clock!
My uncle lives in Texas
And that’s music to my ears
He can trace his ancestors
Back to The Trail of Tears
He likes to sleep in the desert
And dance out under the stars
He says I’ll always have a place to sleep,
(If I ever get that far!)
CHORUS:
I’ll always have a place to stay
When I ride the Mother Road
At every stop along the way
I find an open door
My friends all think that I am crazy
But they love me anyway
And when I ride that Mother Road
I’ll always have a place to stay.
