For eight long years I’ve been traveling all round This northern hemisphere With a guitar in my hand Breaking my back and busting my balls Just to get someone to hear One day they might just understand
Since twelve years old I had this dream Just to play this here guitar And I never let it go Through good and bad times, happy sad times Sacrifice and scars I get by with what I know
The road is my religion and I pray It just keeps getting stronger day by day When I come into your town don’t stay away Or come on by and hear my music play Or come on by and hear my music play
I’ve played the blues some country too, A little rock and roll And most importantly It heals your heart frees your mind It sanctifies your soul Well that’s good enough for me
