Drinkin' a black coffee in a little motel lobby Waitin' on the band to come down I've been travelin' across Texas In a little station wagon And draggin' a trailer around I do the drivin' They do the drinkin' That's how I keep us alive We played a good show Last night in Waco We still got an eight-hour drive If I ever get old, I'll still love the road Still love the way that it winds Now when the last song's been played I'll look back and say I sure had a beautiful time ♪ Now we're packed up and rollin' Who cares where we're goin' The radio's playin' sweet country sounds Got the sun on my skin My hair's in the wind And all of the windows rolled down If I ever get old, I'll still love the road Still love the way that it winds When the last song's been played I'll look back and say I sure had a beautiful time ♪ They're havin' a party In the back seat, whoa, Lordy Looks like they're all out of beer They're laughin' at good jokes Rollin' the good smoke Why don't y'all pass that one up here? If I ever get old, I'll still love the road I'll still love the way that it winds When the last song's been played I'll look back and say I sure had a beautiful time I sure had a beautiful time
