What Are The Lyrics For The Road It Gives, the Road It Takes Away By Tom Russell?
I was walking down a quiet road in Ireland
Out beneath those tough old ancient stars When I thought I heard old Scottish Mike singing Carrick Fergus As I recalled those wild days in those loud Norwegian bars He'd sing, "I'm drunk today and I'm rarely sober, Like a soldier on the road to Mandalay." Well the road it gave him wine and the women fair and fine He drunk himself to death, I heard today But we'll sing hallelujah, sing it in the morning And thank the Lord for giving us one more day And for the one's that have passed on through We'll sing this one for you The road it gives and the road it takes away My baby said she didn't mind me travelin' She enjoyed the time alone when I was gone Til she looked me in the eyes and said it's over And I saw the anger buried far too long I picked up my guitar and sang the Dutchman About two people whose love had seen kinder days But my baby she was gone, before the song was sung Well my music never touched her anyway But we'll sing hallelujah, sing it in the morning And thank the Lord for giving us one more day And for the one's that have passed on through We'll sing this one for you The road it gives and the road it takes away The road it gives and the road it takes away The road it gives and the road it takes away |
