Dirt Road

Won’t you
Take your chances
Down by the river
‘cause i’ve heard
Of sweet romances
Down by the river
Dirt road don’t leave me dry
Some say

That you’ll have nine lives
And time to figure
And some folks
May tell you no lies
Just to make them bigger
The tale is told on the tide
Dirt road don’t leave me dry
And brother

I’m doing just fine
Down by the river
And tell them
I’ll be home in time
To share the winter
The tale is told on the tide
Dirt road don’t leave me dry
And talk says
That you’ll find a reason
To back away to

It’s all i can do just to keep believing
To make a way through
The tale is told on the tide
Dirt road don’t leave me dry
And meanwhile
I’ll take my chances
Down by the river
And watch as the light slowly dances
Down by the river
The tale is told on the tide
Dirt road don’t leave me dry
