Going Down That Road

Let's call it a warning, there's no need for a reply
Right now there's nothing burning,
but, you could say that I'm twice shy
Sure, you've got the right to find a better way
But if you want some truth from me, all that I can say is...

I'm watching for the detours, I'm carrying a heavy load
I've got to make sure I won't be going down that road,
Going down that road

I've been to every truck stop, and every back-woods town
May not have been everywhere, but Lord, I've been around
You don't want to hear it, a pack of well made lies
I know you've got a point and that's what I despise (chorus)

I'm watching for the detours, I'm carrying a heavy load
I've got to make sure I won't be going down that road
I'm searching for the map, its here somewhere,
I'm trying to break the code
I've got to make sure I won't be going down that road,
Going down that road

I never thought I'd say it, it feels like I've gone blind
There's no other way to play it, You've been on my mind
Explaining and complaining about what's become of me
If I was smart, I'd park my heart and throw away the key
From here to there and back, and down above and up below
Sometimes it's best to wait, but, now it's time to go (chorus)

To hell with all the detours, now I can't be slowed
Bound to be a big mistake, going down that road
I never had a map you know, I'll never break the code
Motors purring like a kitten, hope she don't explode
So climb aboard, shut the door, we're going down that road
Going down that road, going down that road
