LAWLESS ROADS

Music & lyrics by Brian Nelson

 

One day you will thank me
this I know for sure
If you don't believe me
walk outside your door
and see another situation
though you may find it strange
The rules and regulations
they're forever changing
on the lawless roads
the lawless roads

~

Well I've had some close encounters
of many different kinds
I've met a hundred outlaws
twice as many minds
that look beyond the laws' horizon
meant to keep you save and sound
not looking for the highs and lows
that can't be found upon the lawless roads

~

Out on the lawless roads
sometimes it rained sometimes it snowed
I learned to decipher codes
that helped me to survive upon
the lawless roads

~

One day you will thank me
I don't expect it now
in spirit you outrank me
Still you don't know how
a man can take the wrong direction
land inside a scene
With surreal connections
It's like you've never been upon
the lawless roads
the lawless roads

~


Out on the lawless roads
sometimes it rained sometimes it snowed
I learned to decipher codes
helped me to survive along
the lawless roads

~
