Spirit Of The Road

 

Mysteriously you have made your presence known to me

You have been my faithful companion that no one can see

Leading me through the curves of life and over the next hill

You have taught me to appreciate doing things at my will

 

In the worst of circumstances you have successfully rescued me

Allowed me to twist the wick and set confusing thoughts free

I have pounded the asphalt until positive things are left in my head

With wind against my face you erase from my life things I dread

 

We have traveled to little known places comprehending God’s creation

Observing farms, factories, rich people and poor all free in this great nation

You have humbled me while making me feel like I am a king in my own space

I have gained the power to confront worries and destroy them without a trace

 

Let me and my Brothers continue on riding through as we have done in the past

May we still all watch out for one another for as long as this life might last
As for the spirit of the road, I am thankful that you have permeated my skull

Because of you many Brothers will keep standing while Mr. Joe Citizen may fall
