Two beers left on a six pack ring
Nowhere Texas cheap motel, window unit just struggling
Neither one of us could sleep, so we just shot the breeze
As you do
He pulled off a beer and left the the last one dangling
I popped a top and said this road dog living might’ve finally done me in
He took a sip smiled and said there’s some miles in us left
It’s just a rocky patch we’re rolling through
He said let those horses run or you’ll go crazy
Just howling at the moon every night
This ol’ highway that we’re on
Ain’t soft as green, green grass of home
It’s a long hard road, but it’s a good long ride
The stars were on the run that ol’ sun was moving in
His words were ringing true, but I wasn’t through wallowing
I got nothing much to show for all these years that I’ve piled up
Sometimes all that nothing’s just too much
He said the sun’s coming up gold, we stole another day
Tonight we’re at the GoldenLight Cafe
They got waffles in the lobby shaped just like Texas
Life is good, let's go get some breakfast
Let those horses run or you’ll go crazy
Just howling at the moon every night
This ol’ highway that we’re on
Ain’t soft as green, green grass of home
It’s a long hard road, but it’s a good long ride
It’s a long hard road, but it’s a good long ride
