Dry Dusty Road Lyrics - Singles - Robert Hunter

Dry dusty road 

Dry dusty road 

Brother, won't you carry me along 

This dry dusty road 

Children shallying 

Playing in the morning sun 

Spike-heeled lady 

Running through the burying ground 

You set my soul on fire 

You set me on my own 

Broke-down car but the wheels still roll 

Down the dry, dry dusty road 

Stuck inside a tunnel 

Beset with diamond lies 

Wings of night enclosing 

Like a long, long night without a dawning 

Being bent on ruin 

I tried to sell my name 

All that I got for it 

Was one good look at flame 

Drive, drive dusty road 

Dry dusty road 

Oh brother, let me carry you along 

This dry dusty road 

In that flame I saw a face 

I've never seen before 

If they ask me why, I know 

Just who I done this for 

No one else to come to 

Not much else I know 

Not much else I'm good for 

Lay away my lady-o 

You set my soul on fire 

You set me on my own 

Broke-down car but the wheels still roll 

Down the dry, dry dusty road 

Dry dusty road 

Dry, dry 

Dry dusty road 

Dry dusty road 

Dry dusty road
