Rollin' Along

Met 'em on the highway, way out on the road
Where they were headin', don't think anybody knows
Didn't care where, only needed to go
They're just rollin' along
Pulled into a truck stop, a hundred miles to go
Feelin' kinda beat up after eatin' up the road
Thought we had it tough 'til we heard their tale of woe
They've been rollin' along
Livin' on the highway, rollin' along
Travelin' way too far, rollin' along
With the mess they're under, lightnin' and the thunder
Just rollin' along, rollin' along
Said they'd play for pickin's anyplace on up the road
Thought it would come easy, they'd be rakin' in the dough
Barely brings a livin', said, "I guess it comes slow"
And they're rollin' along
Told me they'd seen trouble a short time ago
At a rock 'n' roll house where they tried to steal a show
Cowboys let 'em have it and they showed 'em where to go
Now they're rollin' along
Livin' on the highway, rollin' along
Travelin' way too far, rollin' along
With the mess they're under, lightnin' and the thunder
Just rollin' along
Haven't got an eagle or a place to put their heads
Have to run the highway
Still they're gonna make it, still they've got the will
You know they're gonna make it, they keep climbin' up that hill
Pullin' for the highway, stood and watched 'em go
Wonderin' if they'd manage as they blew out down the road
Thinkin' how we made this trip so many years ago
Just rollin' along
Livin' on the highway, rollin' along
Travelin' way too far, rollin' along
With this mess they're under, lightnin' and the thunder
Just rollin' along
Whoa, rollin' along
Just rollin' along
Whoa, rollin' along
Keep those wheels a-turnin'
Whoa, rollin' along, oh yeah
Just rollin' along
Just rollin' along
