Rhythm of the Road

I’ve traveled down these hard luck roads
Dust on the dashboard and holes in my clothes
Heat on the highway and wear on my tread
All I really want is a room and a bed
Gears whining still they lead me on
Where am I going and why am I still gone
Why does this freedom lead me by the nose
Must be something ‘bout this life that I chose
Home, it’s a memory, so close to me, when will I see that willow tree that beckons me back home
Pack my bags and turn this trip around
I just can’t wait to see my own hometown
One more roadhouse and one more song
I love this road but the best road leads me home
Home, it’s a memory, so close to me, when will I see that willow tree that beckons me back home
Refrain: How am I gonna get home caught up in the rhythm of the road…

Portland Town

Way out west there’s a mighty sound where the clouds roll in and it all comes down in Portland Town,
Those grey skies won’t bring you down cause the green grows from the sacred ground in Portland Town, Portland Town
Down it comes and it stays for days and it covers you like a holy haze in Portland Town
Feel the mist upon your skin, close your eyes and drink it in in Portland Town, Portland Town
Muddy ground, muddy boots, big old trees with muddy roots in Portland Town
Take your shoes off at the door ‘cause you don’t want mud on mama’s floor in Portland Town, Portland Town
(spoken)
I feel a sunbreak coming on—here it comes, there it goes
It might freeze and it might get hotter but I’m gonna stay come hell or high water in Portland Town
All that rain’s gonna make you strong you can sing and dance all night long in Portland Town, Portland Town
What that rain’s gonna do for me is wash all my troubles out to sea in Portland Town, Portland Town
