Nameless Road Lyrics

In the hills up north of Austin

There's a road that has no name

Two lanes that cut through history

Not at all what you'd call tame

The curves are tight and treacherous

And the ghosts are everywhere

I can hear them in the wind

Because I know what happened there

This old road they call it Nameless

That's what's printed on the signs

Rocks and rust, foundations and dust

Windmills endless crying

Nameless road

Nameless road

Where the oak and cedar grows

And where every cowboy knows

You're not alone on Nameless road

Time rolls on on Nameless road

The Rodgers and the Colleys

The Turners and the Briggs

It feels as though they watch me

Like the whitetails and the pigs

All along the Big Sandy

And past the Sunset Ranch

Meteorites and rattlesnake bites

Kiowa and Comanche

Giant hills surround me

Like a posse that's been froze

But they always let me pass on through

Out of kindness I suppose

Nameless road, oh

Nameless road

Where the oak and cedar grows

And where every cowboy knows

You're not alone on Nameless road

Time rolls on on Nameless road
