The Road You Leave Behind

(David Lee Murphy)

I remember the night my dad stopped the car

And got out in the rain

Changed a blown out tire on a car

For a family with out of state plates

I said dad did we know those folks

As they waved and drove out of sight

He just smiled as he started the car

He said son not 'til tonight

You see the road you leave behind you

Is another road you're gonna have to come back down

It's just the way this big old world turns 'round

You'll find somehow somewhere someplace sometime

You gotta go back down the road you leave behind

Stuck out on the highway one night

Many years gone by

Had the hood of my truck pulled up

My ol' gas tank was dry

Some ol' guy gettin' off on the night shift

Pulled up to check on me

He said I been in your shoes before son

And it's no place to be

You see the road you leave behind you

Is another road you're gonna have to come back down

It's just the way this big old world turns 'round

You'll find somehow somewhere someplace sometime

You gotta go back down the road you leave behind

I said what do I owe you friend you could easily passed me by

He said next time it might be me son you don't me a dime

You see the road you leave behind you

Is another road you're gonna have to come back down

It's just the way this big old world turns 'round

You'll find somehow somewhere someplace sometime

You gotta go back down the road you leave behind
