Dan Fogelberg - Down the Road Lyrics

Artist: Dan Fogelberg

Album: High Country Snows

  • Songwriters: Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs

Down the road, down the road
Got a little pretty girl down the road
Down the road, down the road
Got a little pretty girl down the road
Mountain pass

Well, I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight
Those truckers they all flash their lights at me
This highway ain't the very best companion
â€~Cause I know there's somewhere else I'd rather be

The moonlight on the snow just sets me thinking
â€~Bout the way your smile shines upon your face
And I know this ain't the last beer, I'll be drinking
Before I reach my final resting place
Oh, I

Down the road, down the road
Got a little pretty girl down the road
Down the road, down the road
Got a little pretty girl down the road
Mountain pass

Wish that I was in your arms a'sleeping
Dreaming of the sweet love we just made
But I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight
Wishin' I was in your arms again

Oh, my wheels are running hard against this mountain
I finally crossed the Archuleta line
Another hour and I'll be with my darlin'
To dry those lonesome tears that she's been cryin'
But I

Down the road, down the road
Got a little pretty girl down the road
Down the road, down the road
Got a little pretty girl down the road
Mountain pass

I'm runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight
Those truckers they all flash their lights at me
Well, this highway ain't the very best companion
â€~Cause I know there's somewhere else I'd rather be
Oh, I

Down the road, down the road
Got a little pretty girl down the road
Down the road, down the road
Got a little pretty girl down the road
Mountain pass

I am runnin' down this mountain pass at midnight
Wishin' I was in your arms again
