Burnin' Bridges (on A Rocky Road) Lyrics - Sawyer Brown

I talked to an old man, he had a Bible in a sack 

He looked like Mother Nature had a heart attack 

He said, "I used to have money and visions too 

But love and life has changed my points of view" 

He said, "Things have changed for the better 

Things have changed in the weather 

Well, you got to go down easy when you go 

So don't go burnin' bridges on a rocky road" 

Now Johnny left Sally, but she didn't cry 

She said Johnny taught the devil to lie 

Now she stands alone and does her own thing 

She don't miss him and she sure don't miss the pain 

He said, "Things have changed for the better 

Things have changed in the weather 

Well, you got to go down easy when you go 

So don't go burnin' bridges on a rocky road" 

Don't go burnin' bridges on a rocky road 

It seems it all hinges on how we carry your load 

Now Bonnie, she played in a rock n' roll band 

But her hour glass was out of sand 

She sang one last song, yeah and this one took 

Now we all stand in line and we pay to take a look 

He said, "Things have changed for the better 

Things have changed in the weather 

Well, you got to go down easy when you go 

So don't go burnin' bridges on a rocky road" 

So don't go burnin' bridges on a rocky road 

You just don't go burnin' bridges on a rocky road
