Had people ask too many times in the past, "Man, why do you do the work that you do? "Don't you ever worry the means won't lead to an end and you'll be stuck, broke, lonesome and blue?" Now, I ain't the kind to go and mess with folks' minds, I don't intend to be offended too easily Instead I grit and I grin, I tell 'em "Here's the truth, friend, I only do the sort of work that pleases me" Let me lay it on you like this: there ain't a road too long All I got is my good name And my family waitin' back home So I keep drivin', stay in my lane There ain't a load too heavy to haul to keep me gone There ain't a road too long Now don't get me wrong, sometimes it's tough goin' on, takes all I got to not just give it a rest But it ain't as hard as it seems, keepin' a grip on a dream, I mean I know I'm overflowingly blessed
With the support of my wife, I thank God for my life and all my lucky stars above I try to focus on the moment and mostly get emotions like happy, gratitude, and love So listen to me: there ain't a road too long All I got is my good name And my family waitin' back home So I keep drivin', stay in my lane There ain't a load too heavy to haul to keep me gone There ain't a road too long All I got is my good name And my family waitin' back home I keep drivin', stay in my lane There ain't a load too heavy to haul to keep me goin' insane [?] All I got is my good name And the family waitin' back home I keep driving, stay in my lane There ain’t a load too heavy to haul to keep me gone There ain’t a road too long
