There were many times I came to her
When a day of disappointment
Found me reaching for her helping hand once more
Found me running round the boundless reache of failure
To the ever waiting welcome of her door
And there were many times I left her
When the sober light of morning
Found me started on some reckless scheme once more
Found me creeping round my ever sleeping conscience
To the ever waiting freedom of her door
So tell me dusty road
will you help me try to find a friend
Long and dusty road
you know I have to see her once again
I know a hundred towns she could have wandered through
But you're the only one who really knows
So take me to the places that she's wandered to
And I'll follow you wherever you may go
Hello dusty road
will you help me try to find a friend
Long and dusty road
you know I have to see her once again
I've got so many special things I owe to her
That yesterday I didn't even know
So guide my weary footsteps and I'll go to her
And I'll cling to her
and I'll never let her go
