Ants On A Log Lyrics - Randy Travis

(Skip Ewing/Donny Kees) 

Ants on a log 

Floatin' down a river 

Runnin' around 

But not gettin' anywhere 

Power stearin' wheels 

Just ain't connected 

And we can't jump off like flees on a dog 

Can't fly away like flies on a hog 

We're really just along for the ride like ants on a log

I got an uncle 

He plays a game 

Can't win it 

He's got a mold 

Tries to fit everybody else in it 

When's he gonna learn he's bangin his head on the wall? 

He ain't gonna change 

And he looks at me strange when I tell him we're wrong 

We're all just ants on a log 

Floatin' down a river 

Runnin' around 

But not gettin' anywhere 

Power stearin' wheels 

Just ain't connected 

And we can't jump off like flees on a dog 

Can't fly away like flies on a hog 

We're really just along for the ride like ants on a log 

Photos 

We all know people 

We yell at the cars and the traffic 

Folks in a hurry 

Life's full of heartache and havok 

I finally learned how to lay back and let life happen 

I just image 

the angels up in heaven 

lookin' down at us and laughin' 

At ants on a log 

Floatin' down a river 

Runnin' around 

But not gettin' anywhere 

Power stearin' wheels 

Just ain't connected 

And we can't jump off like flees on a dog 

Can't fly away like flies on a hog 

We're really just along for the ride like ants on a log 

And just about the time you think 

You're rollin' in clover 

Along comes a rabbit 

And the world tips over 

Ants on a log 

Floatin' down a river 

Runnin' around 

But not gettin' anywhere 

Power stearin' wheels 

Just ain't connected 

And we can't jump off like flees on a dog 

Can't fly away like flies on a hog 

We're really just along for the ride like ants on a log 

Yeah we're really just along for the ride like ants on a log...
