Every Other Road

I never had a place to go and lean in
I hope I get a chance someday
Better than a lonely life of dreaming
There’s a lot along the way

Only every other street is gold
But that ain’t what i want on mine
Here’s to the man with the silver soul
And the strength to let it shine

I never thought I’d have a lady love
Boy was I surprised to see
Someone who could really care about me
Even when the times were lean

Only every other woman knows
Real life is all i need
Here’s to the dame
In the past that made me
Make a man of me

Well I never had a place to go and lean in
I hope I get a chance someday
Better to roam with a life of dreaming
There’s a lot along the way

Only every other street is gold
But that ain’t what I want on mine
Here’s to the man with the silver soul
And the strength to let it shine

Here’s to the man with the silver soul
And the strength to let it shine
