Marshall Tucker Band - County Road Lyrics

County Road
County Road

Workin’ out my time, on that ole County Road
So much on my mind, that it’s ready to explode
I never got a chance, to explain the things I did
I know I never will, they’ll just work me ‘til I’m dead

I got twenty - seven years ‘til I can go
And as long as I am here my Lord
The only thing I know ’s that County Road

The sun don’t seem to shine, on that ole County Road
They will beat you ‘til your blind, as you stagger with the load
The bosses lay their weights, on your back until it bleeds
They will laugh and tell you how, your gonna pay for all your deeds

I got twenty - seven years ‘til I can go
And as long as I am here my Lord
The only thing I know ’s that County Road

Instrumental

Running out of time, on that ole County Road
The hole’s to deep to climb, on that ole County Road
And no one gives a dam, if you live or if you die
And no one understands and I dought they’ll ever cry

I got twenty - seven years ‘til I can go
And as long as I am here my Lord
The only place I know ’s that County Road

Well I’m walking down that line (that County Road)
There the sun don’t seem to shine (that County Road)
Well I’m walking down that line (on that County Road)
The sun don’t seem to shine (on that County Road)
