When I was young Old man sat me on his knee He told me if I had a dream I could be what I wanna be Now life goes on A voice echoes in the wind It's telling me to carry on Now I know that it's him He said
Whoa, watch out boy Don't go messin' with your life 'cause it ain't no toy Lord help ya to carry life's load It could all pass you by down on Dead Man's Road
Now I got a good woman You know she's lookin' out for me And if I get a little blind You know she helps me to see But I gotta keep a runnin' Cause they're catchin' up to me I think I hear that voice again This time it says to me He said
Whoa, watch out boy Don't go messin' with your life 'cause it ain't no toy Lord help ya to carry life's load Don't you let it pass you by down on Dead Man's Road Look out
