Heading up north driving through the pines Making my break from the city lights My heart told me that the time was right Maybe I’ll find some peace tonight
Tell my momma won’t sell my soul For millions of dollars, diamonds or pearls And if that devil catches up with me I hope I find the strength I need
Cause it’s a long way down that cold and darkened valley I’m tired of living through other people’s journeys And I’ll make my way, as soon as I see the sun Now the road is calling So long
What’s a soul if it don’t seek to find Its purpose in love, its purpose in life I know I’ll search till the day I die To finally find the reason for mine
Cause it’s a long way down that cold and darkened valley I’m tired of living through other people’s journeys And I’ll make my way, as soon as I see the sun Now the road is calling The road is calling So long
When I sit there old and grey Looking back on my mistakes I pray to the lord that I can say At least I did it my own way At least I did it my own way
Cause it’s a long way down that cold and darkened valley I’m tired of living through other people’s journeys And I’ll make my way, as soon as I see the sun Now the road is calling The road is calling The road is calling So long
