Mark David Manders - One Too Many Roads lyrics

Stumblin' my way through life on those back roads of Texas Lord I guess I've seen a thing or two There's a song in every smile, and not knowin' where the next is Keeps my baggage packed and my mind on the move I've shared a lady's company in more than just one town When daylight comes a callin', I'm nowhere to be found So I find myself searching, but there's nowhere to go 'Cause I've been down one too many roads I've been down one too many roads I've found out the hard way ain't the only way to go And the miles I've put behind me have left me a little slow 'Cause I've been down one too many roads Spent many a night alone, my coat draped across my shoulder Chasin' headlights with my thumb in the air And each truck that pa**es by makes me feel a little older Makes me wonder, what the hell am I doing here When I see those brake lights shining, I get that feeling down inside When I crawl up in the cab, I know it's just another ride I try hard to hide it, but I know it must show That I've been down one too many roads When I was just 16, I fell in love with music And taught myself to play this old guitar I'd write all about my life, but they said they couldn't use it Now I know why Nashville seems so far Now I'm playing where I can for the money and the beer Thank God for Texas, thank God I'm here And if they wanted me in Nashville, I don't think I'd go 'Cause I've been down one too many roads 'Cause I've been down one too many roads
