"Maybe Somewhere Down The Road" lyrics
"Maybe Somewhere Down The Road"
Georgia farm girl, full of grace
More than just a pretty face
Did she love me, probably not
Since back then I've learned a lot
She had pretty hands and pretty feet
And still she felt so incomplete
Did I love her, I don't know
It was such a long time ago
Who was she, who can say
If I had known her well at all
She might still be here today
I never saw her cry
Nor thought to wonder why
We were faithful to the code
Maybe somewhere down the road
The smile she gave when our paths crossed
I should have seen as man I'm lost
She said you can't help me, no one can
Things just get so out of hand
She said you play a mean guitar
You probably should have been a star
But "should have been" are wasted words
They hug the ground like wounded birds
Who were we, who can say
If I'd known myself at all
Would she still be here today
Once I watched her sleep
So childlike and so deep
When I heard she died alone
It was like I'd always known
It was right there in the code
Maybe somewhere down the road

When you sell your soul it opens a deep dark hole...
James McMurtry - "Canola Fields" I was thinking 'bout you, crossing Southern Alberta
Canola fields on a July day

Wynonna & The Big Noise - "Keeps Me Alive" This is my story, this is my glory
This is what keeps me alive
This is me flying, this is me trying
This is what keeps me alive
Will I be dreaming, dreaming?
Tomorrow, will I be trembling, trying?...
Chris Smither - "Maybellene" As I was motorvatin' over the hill
I saw Maybellene in a Coupe de Ville
A Cadillac movin' on on open road
Nothin'll outrun my V8 Ford
The Cadillac movin' up to 95
We were bumper to bumper
Rollin'...
