There's a road in Oklahoma
Straighter than a preacher
Longer than a number
And it goes from ever on
I've always been a good teacher
For a lot of country boys like me
Push that load
Prepare that someday
I'll push it long as I'm alive
And I don't know how long I'll last
But it's just a road
Ain't no highway
No highway
I blew it by the double five
I know I'm going way too fast
I've been down this road
Just searching for me
It don't go nowhere
Just brings you back again
Leaves you lonely and cold
Standing on the shoulder
But you come before the blue back home
So you're walking on the road
So you're walking on the road
Some folks say
You keep going
And you keep it on the yellow line
It'll take you to the big highway
But there's a toll to climb
So if you go
The keeper at the gate is blind
So you better be prepared to come
Hopping down this road
Just searching for the end
It don't go nowhere
Just brings you back again
Leaves you lonely and cold
Standing on the shoulder
But you can't be bothered going back home
So you're walking on the road
So you better be prepared to come
