lyrics

The Lord’s Highway

In days of yore
Long before the days we still recall
Before the fall
Of all that kept us high
And sanctified
And with time just standing still
We watched the world fly
Fast before our eyes

And we shot the shit like we always did
Like it was all just preordained
Rolling towards our great reward
On the Lord’s highway
The Lord’s highway

And then we drank and we drank some more
Bottles crashing on the floor
Beneath our feet
And we felt the heat
From those razzle dazzle girls
We chanced to meet
Wrap around us
Like something from below

And we shot the shit like we always did
Without a trace of shame
Rolling towards our great reward
On the Lord’s highway
The Lord’s highway

Come on and ride, ride along
Ride, ride along, ride along

I know greater ghosts than us
Have boasted taller tales
They traced a trail
Beyond the nights we’ve known
Still we’re brothers and we’re kin
And we can lie just like the best of them old soldiers and fishermen
Remember when and then and then

We shot the shit like we always did
Like there was nothing we would change
Rolling towards our great reward
On the Lord’s highway
The Lord’s highway
