Road To Nowhere

verse 1 Her mother came and packed her bags and drove her off to nowhere In the shadows of her second father's shoulders she just stood there Crying She's crying Then the wicked lies rolled off her tongue like war-bound soldiers marching And she ran from the truth like wounded men run from the darkness When they're dying She's dying And I told her I loved her And she told me she's leaving Just like every other person in my life that I've believed in And as she slammed the door and walked away I turned on my radio Ooooh no And I played her a dancing song And got her home verse 2 And I had more faith in her than her mother had in Jesus But like Judas she rebuked my name for jewels and silver pieces A wedding ring A wedding ring And in my darkest hour her eyes filled with desperation Her words were sharp and her sword was swift, Lord I have been forsaken By my one true love My one true love And I told her I loved her And she told me she's leaving Just like every other person in my life that I've believed in And as she slammed the door and walked away I turned on my radio Ooooh no And I played her a dancing song And got her home verse 3 As I lie alone tonight in the bed we built and once shared I wonder where you are, who you're with, do you think that he cares About you About you Now I am not a godly man, my road's twisted and sinful But to have you back, I'd bow my head and sing a Southern Baptist hymnal Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
