I know a guy is going away He might even be leaving today Where he's going he's gonna stay He ain't coming back Rural route, rural route Out on the rural route Rural route, rural route He ain't out there today Tried to live his life right there A cement truck, morning till night Patios, interstates, training walls All that stuff will not fall Rural route, rural route Out on the rural route
Rural route, rural route He ain't out there today I know a guy is going away He might even be leaving today Where he's going he's gonna stay He ain't coming back I don't think that it is right For a man to work all his life Have a house a kids and wife Lord God, why is that? Rural route, rural route Out on the rural route Rural route, rural route He ain't out there today
