paroles de chanson Once Upon a Road - Tom T. Hall

Once upon a road when I was innocent and free
And the back roads of America were like toy land to me
It surely was the promised land and we had ourselves a dream
Oh how the milk and honey flowed once upon a road
Once upon a road we could live off of the land
Watermelons on the vine chicken cookin' in a pan
Water clean and water free you could sleep beneath a tree
Love and freedom was our code that was once upon a road
Once upon a road really was a crazy time
We believed we could move mountains so we moved them in our minds
Blood and sweat and bitter tears took the days and took the years
We have little left to show for being once upon a road
Once upon a road we were young and we were fair
Changed the face of all America
But never hung around in the barber chair
We were fighting for a dream fought a mighty big machine
There ain't nothing that we know for being once upon a road
We have little left to show for being once upon a road
