Stuck out on this gravel road, got trouble on my mind
Stuck out on this gravel road, got trouble on my mind
I'm walking in a straight line, trying to leave it all behind
Nothing on this gravel road but memories and dust
Nothing on this gravel road but memories and dust
No one to confide in, no one I can trust
My nerves they feel like steel, they're beginning to corrode
Yeah, my nerves they feel like steel, they're beginning to corrode
My back's about to break, holding up this heavy load
On the sunny side of gravel road, a fiesta's taking place
On the sunny side of gravel road, a fiesta's taking place
The bride is out to get me, I'm too afraid to show my face
On the rainy side of gravel road, I'm knee deep in the mud
On the rainy side of gravel road, I'm knee deep in the mud
Only one thing that can save me, the savior is blood
Shake, shake, mama,mama shake, shake your tambourine
Shake, shake, mama mama shake, come now, shake your tambourine
Shake it for the saints, shake it for the Nazarene
Down further in the distance, I can see a street of gold
Down further in the distance, I can see a street of gold
So smooth and bright and shiny, nothing like this gravel road
There's a day a-coming, I'll have myself a new postcode
There's a day a-coming, I'll have myself a new postcode
Far away from earthly troubles, far away from gravel road
