Down The Road Lyrics

As I left town

A man walked towards me

He said I've got some advice

I think you might need

Don't take the low road

When you come to the fork

All the crazies live down there

They'll beat you all out of sorts

Don't take the low road

I advise the high road

It veers to the right

It's a lot less traveled

But safer at night

At times it gets steep

It's not always smooth

But the high road's

The one I always use

He's been down the road

A little farther than me

And seen some things

I've not yet seen

His feet have walked

Where mine have not stepped

He's been to some places

I've not seen yet

Now years ago

I took the low road

I barely escaped with my life

And just like you

A man told me

Don't take that low road

But I paid him no heed

Yeah I know

It looks like a shortcut

It looks like a fast way

But I barely escaped

With my life

But a man on the high road

He heard my cry

He came down

And he saved my life that night

He's been down the road

A little farther than me

And seen some things

I've not yet seen

(I've not yet seen)

His feet have walked

Where mine have not stepped

He's been to some places

I've not seen yet

He's been down the road

A little farther than me

And seen some things

I've not yet seen

(I've not yet seen)

His feet have walked

Where mine have not stepped

He's been to some places

I've not seen

Been to some places

I've not seen

Been to some places

I've not seen yet
