lifeblood: songs: lyrics: country road

take to the highway won't you lend me your name
your way and my way seem to be one in the same
momma don't understand it
she wants to know where i been
i'd have to be some kind of natural born fool
to want to pass that way again
but you know i could feel it
on a country road

sail on home to jesus won't you good girls and boys
i'm all in pieces, you can have your own choice
i could seen a heavenly band full of angels
and they're a comin' to set me free
don't know much about the wild wind
but i can tell that it's bound to because i could feel it
on a country road

guess my feet know where they want me to go
walking on a country road

walk on down, walk on down, walk on down
walk on down, walk on down a country road yeah
la la la la la la la
country road
yeah walking on a country road
country road
yeah
walking on a country road
