Down That Road Lyrics - Jerry Jeff Walker

Django Walker/Greg Combs 

 

Took the bus out of Austin, band was all on board 

Everyone's so excited, who knows what lays in store 

Hey look out the window, there goes Baton Rouge 

Nobody there knows us, band's still paying its dues 

Yeah we're paying dues 

 

First show in New Orleans, saw the lights of Bourbon Street 

On the road in the morning, Little Rock's where we'll be 

And the bus keeps on rolling, down that old highway 

And every night we play music, that's what gets you through the day 

Yeah, cause that's why we play 

 

And the rain keeps pouring down and it's leaking in our beat-up bus 

Still we're high and dry inside and there's a rainbow ahead of us 

People say we're crazy to go searching for a pot of gold 

But we got to chase that dream before we're too damn old 

 

Last show's in Kentucky, took the bus on out of town 

All the girls were waving come back, so we were Texas Bound 

 

Fast food and motel rooms, sure got the best of me 

But looking back if you ask me, hell I'd do it for free 

Yeah cause some times we do 

Yeah sometimes we do 

 

Down the road so many miles to go, who knows what city's next 

Who knows what lies ahead, who knows...
