Hard Road
I'm rollin' down a hard road with my diesel engine wound, and this heavy haulin' truckload is North Dakota bound. The thunder clouds off to the west are blacker than the night. There's a diner at the next hill's crest, off the shoulder, to the right. chorus Coast to coast, this country's big, there's miles to unwind but when I climb into this rig the hard road's all I'll find. Back and forth a million miles, across the great divide, I think I'll stop and rest awhile, fatigue is hard to hide. I was born to run the highway, to chase the thin white line, and destiny has marked my way; it's printed on a sign. chorus Coast to coast, this country's big the miles aren't too kind and when I climb into this rig I've left someone behind. On a long haul up the canyon I know what's round the bend she's my lover and companion in the last dance at the end. Now when the road will let me be, when I've run that one last mile, the hard road then will set me free; and I'll leave her with a smile. chorus Coast to coast this country's big the miles aren't to kind and when I climb into this rig I've left someone behind. ![]()
