Rhythm Of The Road
George Strait
Song: Rhythm of the Road Sung By: George Strait CD: #7 Strait out of the Box Written By: Dan McCoy Transcribed By: M. Lawrence 1.I’d rather be home But I make my livin’ on the go Big silver eagle spreads her wings And drops us at another show I think about holdin’ my baby tonight As I listen to the big wheels roll Three days into a six-week tour Getting in the rhythm of the road 2.We pick and sing Say "goodnight" then we’ll be flyin’ My world’s a chain of one-night-stands Strung together by the center line I don’t know where I’ll wake up tomorrow But I can’t let the tempo slow Every town is just another beat livin’ in the rhythm of the road The rhythm of the road’s got a mind of its own If you find it it’ll drive you insane Like the clackity-clack of a railroad track I’m rattlin’ like an old freight train Towns are flashin’ by the folks are wavin’ "hi" They all start to look the same Gotta stop for a minute be glad I’m in it Remember just why I came (Instrumental) 3.Those highway signs Lord they keep me on the move I think about givin’ it up sometimes And gettin’ in a diff’ren groove But I just let the days slide by Get goin’ with the flow A four/four beat’s the only time I keep livin’ in the rhythm of the road A four/four beat’s the only time I keep livin’ in the rhythm of the road Livin’ in the rhythm of the road
