Rocky Road

When I set out this was just a track
Now it's a rocky road
I left so fast I didn't even pack
I just hit this rocky road
The flint and shale is cold and cruel
On this rocky road
But its spark and spite I can overrule
Walkin' this rocky road - yeah
Walk this rocky road

It began one morning when I woke re-born
Walk this rocky road
Felt like chains that had bound me, from me had been torn
Walk this rocky road
The rut I was in had once been a groove
Walk this rocky road
I said to my feet 'C'mon feet, time to move.'
Then we hit this rocky road - yeah
Hit this rocky road

And the way may be pitted
And the climb steep
And the mountains soaring
And the valleys deep
But I'm driven by a memory from way back when
That says I'm never goin back again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

When I first started out this was just a track
Now its a rocky road
Fixed my eyes face forward and I didn't look back
I just hit this rocky road
There's some thumpin' and bumpin' from a thunderstorm
On this rocky road
But I'll keep on walkin' 'til I make it home
I'm gonna walk this rocky road - yeah
Walk this rocky road
