Rollin' Along

Met 'em on the highway
Way out on the road
Where they were a-headin'
Don’t think anybody knows
Didn’t care where,
Only needed to go They’re just rollin' along
Pulled into a truckstop
A hundred miles to go Feelin' kind of beat up After eatin' up the road
Thought we had it tough
'Til we heard their tale of woe
They’d been rollin' along
Livin' on the highway
Rollin' along
Travellin' way too far
Rollin' along
With the mess they’re under
Lightnin' and the thunder-
Just rollin' along
Rollin' along
Said they’d play for pickin’s
Any place on up the road
Thought it would come easy
They’d be rakin' in the dough
Barely brings a livin'
Said «I guess it comes slow»
And they’re rollin' along
Told me they’d seen trouble
A short time ago
At a rock n' roll house
Where they’d tried to steal the show
Cowboys let 'em have it And they showed 'em where to go Now they’re-
Rollin along
Livin' on the highway
Rollin' along
Travellin' way too far
Rollin' along
With the mess they’re under
Lightnin' and the thunder
Just rollin' along
Haven’t got an eagle
Or a place to lay their heads
Have to run the highway
Still they’re gonna make it Still they’ve got the will
You know they’re gonna make it They keep climbin' up the hill
Rollin' for the highway
Stood and watched 'em go Wonderin' if they’d manage
As they blew off down the road
Thinkin' how we’d made this trip
So many years ago
Just rollin' along
Livin' on the highway
Rollin' along
Travellin' way too far
Rollin' along
With this mess they’re under
Lightnin' and the thunder-
Just rollin' along
Rollin' along
Just rollin' along
Whoa, rollin' along
Keep those wheels a-turnin'
Whoa, rollin' along
Just rollin' along
Just rollin' along
