Woorden:
Kris Kristofferson This Old Road

I stand on the stairway My back to the dungeon The doorway to freedom So close to my hand And voices behind me So bitterly damn me For seeking salvation

Thank you for a life that I'd call happy Overlooking all that we've been through When it comes to loving I've been lucky Everything I am, I owe to you

We used to talk about the rock and the roll That made it matter not to sell your soul Like a banner that we held so high We weren't afraid to fall Steady

It takes one to know one, baby I know how you feel You got your hunger And some problems that are real And you're dealing with some demons Who are driving

Wild American You're the one they never tamed 'Cause you stood your ground And they could not make you change You're the warning they still don't understand

It takes one to know one, baby I know how you feel You got your hunger And some problems that are real And you're dealing with some demons Who are

So many questions So many answers So many reasons Most of them wrong Facing the future With the faith of my father I let a stranger Into my home

get lazy, and forget my obligations I'd go crazy, if I paid attention all the time And I want justice, but I'll settle for some mercy On this Holy Road
