Road Buddy-Dar Williams

[00:00.000] 作词 : Williams [00:11.53]We passed the stores, we passed the hotels [00:14.34]Filled our car with gas and then [00:16.64]We drove that night, I saw the moon [00:19.36]Almost got us in an accident, and [00:22.59]And then at the rest stop [00:24.86]When that woman tried to steal my wallet [00:28.27]It felt like an adventure [00:31.22]Isn't that what you would call it? [00:34.13] [00:35.73]Well isn't that what you would call it? [00:39.34] [00:41.65]You're my road buddy, but I'm lonely all the time [00:47.98]I thought that we'd be joking, having long talks on late night drivin' [00:53.34]But you drive so bad I lost my patience [00:56.52]So pass the chips and turn the station [00:59.53]No, this is not a romance with the road [01:04.00] [01:12.27]Where the moss grows up the trees [01:14.58]To where the dirt is rusty red [01:17.75]I thought we'd find each story like a snakeskin or an arrowhead [01:23.09]But we only stop at fast food places [01:25.91]They hate their jobs, I understand [01:28.93]I try to act familiar, but they're floating just above the land [01:34.66] [01:36.37]And we are all floating [01:40.49] [01:42.39]You're my road buddy, but I'm lonely all the time [01:48.42]I thought we'd show that friendship could be stronger than the Crossroads devil [01:53.90]But I, I thought I heard the tollman saying [01:57.27]I'll take that thing you got from praying [02:00.08]Now this is not a romance with the road [02:03.90] [02:06.48]And those cliffs are the same as in the magazines I have at home [02:12.09]And the tall grass reminds me of the same dreams I had at home [02:18.00]I thought life was a road and I wanted to begin it [02:23.53] [02:24.72]I said, my friend and I are going on a trip so I could only stop a minute [02:31.07]You go to the vending machines [02:33.67]I want to watch these kids with their mother [02:36.59]Sipping on their juice boxes and smiling at each other [02:41.63]And uh, maybe that's their Dad on the phone [02:44.82]Saying, hey Mom, you shouldn't wait, go ahead, have dinner [02:50.15]'Cause we're running just a little late [02:53.57] [02:57.98]But we're on our way [03:00.02] [03:01.01]How 'bout it? [03:01.99]Road buddy, road buddy [03:08.00]I heard about the boxcars and the family of travelers [03:12.77]But there's real estate signs in the cornfield stubble [03:15.93]I know there's love, I bet there's trouble [03:18.78]But you just can't spend a lifetime from the road [03:23.61] [03:26.01]And there's something I finally faced [03:28.71]I finally think I come from someplace [03:31.91]No, this is not a romance with the road [03:35.83]
