Steel Train - Road Song lyrics

When I was a little kid

My father told me to see the world for him

So I took my things

And painted pink sunsets over the vast oceans

Send your dad a note you made it kid you're on the road

Mother, teach me about the country

Can you tell the lie from the lives that you've seen

Mother, can you tell me

Where this road is gonna lead

Just let yourself go and sell your soul to the road

Don't you know I was resting under the tracks

Even then I knew I would always be back

And I know that this steel train

is gonna ride on 'till the end

Blue skies and desert rain

I passed my life by course of steel train

And i ride to the end of the rail

I tell my father of all my tales

I say everything I saw I was thinking of you

And the reason I am here is all because of you

Don't you know I was resting under the tracks

Even then I knew I would always be back

I know that my steel train is gonna ride until the end

I know there's room on this steel train

and we're gonna ride it 'till the end
