Gravel Road Blues Lyrics

Stuck out on this gravel road, got trouble on my mind

Stuck out on this gravel road, got trouble on my mind

I'm walking in a straight line, trying to leave it all behind

Nothing on this gravel road but memories and dust

Nothing on this gravel road but memories and dust

No one to confide in, no one I can trust

My nerves they feel like steel, they're beginning to corrode

Yeah, my nerves they feel like steel, they're beginning to corrode

My back's about to break, holding up this heavy load

On the sunny side of gravel road, a fiesta's taking place

On the sunny side of gravel road, a fiesta's taking place

The bride is out to get me, I'm too afraid to show my face

On the rainy side of gravel road, I'm knee deep in the mud

On the rainy side of gravel road, I'm knee deep in the mud

Only one thing that can save me, the savior is blood

Shake, shake, mama,mama shake, shake your tambourine

Shake, shake, mama mama shake, come now, shake your tambourine

Shake it for the saints, shake it for the Nazarene

Down further in the distance, I can see a street of gold

Down further in the distance, I can see a street of gold

So smooth and bright and shiny, nothing like this gravel road

There's a day a-coming, I'll have myself a new postcode

There's a day a-coming, I'll have myself a new postcode

Far away from earthly troubles, far away from gravel road
