Down the Road

Why do you act so surprised
He'd turn your back and rob you blind
This town is full of drifters, don't you know
They put on their disguise
But you can see it in their hazy eyes
They're all waiting for their time to go

You won't see them down the road
You won't see them down the road
You won't see them down the road
You won't see them down the road

Where the road ends we begin
Before you know you're one of them
Once you ran away from something too
Well I guess that it ain't all that bad
One day you'll think of all the fun you had
With the people that you never really knew
So let's raise a glass for all the misfits
The ones who had their chance and missed it
And blame everyone they know
Many men get lost at sea
Many women turned out to be
Just cameos in your show

You won't see them down the road
You won't see them down the road
You won't see them down the road
You won't see them down the road

Though there are times I hold back tears
You know I can't help but laugh
Did you really have your fun, buddy
Do you even really have to ask

If there's one thing that I've learned in life
You make the bed, you sleep in at night
And some people, they just never do the work
I guess all you can do is the best you can
Try to be a better man
Try not to become one of the jerks

Then you won't see them down the road
You won't see them down the road
You won't see them down the road

Oh no, oh no, no
You won't see them down the road
