There's a road in Oklahoma 
Straighter than a preacher, longer than a memory 
And it goes forever onward 
It's been a good teacher for a lot of country boys like 
me 

I push that load from here to someday 
I'll push as long as I'm alive, but I don't know how 
long I'll last 
'Cause it's just a road, it ain't no highway 
Blowin' by the double five, I know I'm goin' way too 
fast 

I've been down this road just searchin' for the end 
And it don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again 
Leaves you lonely and cold, standin' on the shoulder 
But you've come too far to go back home 
So you're walkin' on a nowhere road 

Some folks say, if you keep rollin' 
And keep it on the yellow line, it'll take you to the 
big highway 
But there's a toll to pay, so if you're goin' 
The keeper of the gate is blind so you better be 
prepared to pay 

I've been down this road just searchin' for the end 
And it don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again 
Leaves you lonely and cold, standin' on the shoulder 
But you've come too far to go back home 
So you're walkin' on a nowhere road
