Long Dark Road Lyrics

The Long Dark Road

You know its time to be movin' on

I can't stay here anymore

If I stay in one place, way too long

My soul starts to fall apart

It's got nothing to do with you girl

I can't stay in one place too long

At my side is always the bad luck blues

That's why I've got to walk out of this town

Nighthawks leaving this town

Stay long enough and the bad luck will find you

You hear them at night and they're gone

Before morning's here I've got to hit that road

The long dark road, the long dark road

The long dark road that's leaving this town

I know I stayed here all winter long

And you kept me warm every night

Don't start saying that I owe you something

Cause you know that just ain't right

I know you don't think too much of me, girl

And I don't blame you at all

But out there is such a great big world

And this here town is just so small

Nighthawks leaving this town

Stay long enough and the bad luck will find you

You hear them at night and they're gone

Before morning's here I've got to hit that road

The long dark road, the long dark road

The long dark road that's leaving this town
