lyrics

We took a ride down the dirt road
In the middle of the night, we were loaded
Not without a worry, not without a care,
Just a bunch of kids in the middle of nowhere.

I was gonna be on the silver screen.
Now you got married and your man ain’t mean.
You said ‘count your blessings our days aren't long’.
Now I’m a traveler with a worried song.

I found my twin in the southern states
His voice shook like a Quaker quakes
He warned me of whiskey and love as a pair,
And that I should sing like no one was out there.

I was gonna be on the silver screen.
Now you’ve gone gray but your cancer’s clean
You counted your blessings cause your days weren’t long,
You are my traveler with a tender song.

My day was a wreck I’d lost my mind
I ran like hell to try to turn back time
Somehow I met you by the skin of my hide,
That was the day when you saved my life.

I was gonna be on the silver screen
You stayed in the city and your lady’s keen
I’ll send out a blessing for the ones who’ve gone,
Don’t be a traveler with a worried song.
