About this time of evening, out by the bay They turn the roadlights on the bridge A diesel rolls in silhouette, eastbound Lovers glad the sun has set
could I ever be with you? It's a long race If I try I will surely finish It's a long race If I try I will surely win it Some day some night with you
Way out here, working on the docks Everyone sees the long day through Well what would I do without the nights? And the phone and the chance just to talk
on Down the road over yonder Any place, any time when I'm fading My love lies waiting Down the road tonight When I was younger All the older boys Would drive me way
just the way it is Some things will never change That's just the way it is That's just the way it is, it is, it is, it is
wave shimmers, pipelines and the gasoline One day it all came running like a bad dream The fire, smoke-filled lungs Hope I'll be standing when the day is
I'll show you where some action is This ain't my style, this ain't my home I'm going where it's safe to roam Take me all the way back To the wild frontier
a drop since you went away Outside of town, the hills are brown I guess way out there you'd call 'em golden Lines outside the welfare store The clock is
out from the rain under the carnival tent I laughed and she'd smile, it would last for awhile You don't know what you got till you lose it all again
