The Road Goes On Forever |

Chorus: Come on and tell your mother Come on and tell your friends (That/'Cause) THE ROAD GOES ON FOREVER And the party never ends No matter what they tell you Or what the future sends THE ROAD GOES ON FOREVER And the party never ends Hey, there, you're looking kind of sad now, don't you know? There's no reason to look so down and no reason to be so low I know a surefire way to get those spirits up Just follow me to eternity and drink from life's golden cup and-- (Chorus) So far the rent is due and your car has broken down You're late for work and your insides hurt and you're on the wrong side of town But cheer up, now as you'll see, there's a silver lining to this cloud Just you step out and work up a shout and yell it all out loud and-- (Chorus) Bridge: Life will throw us lemons No matter how hard we try So just go on and make lemonade And kiss those peels goodbye (Saxophone solo) Now you're lying down on the shrink's couch and you're letting your feelings out He's taking notes on his notepad and you wonder what it's about He says, "Now, you may have a problem here, but we'll have to wait and see--" And you just laugh and say, "Give up that gaff, pal--insanity's fine with me!" (Chorus twice) --February 1996 |
