forty miles of bad road lyrics

Don't let me bring you down
When I'm too tough to be around
Just walk right on by and don't look back
There's a lonely man with eyes of stone
He's seen more trouble than you'll ever know
A piece of him got left behind just walk on by

Cause it's 40 miles of bad road
And I got troubles on my mind
It's 40 miles of bad road
And you ain't got the time so walk on by

When you catch me feeling low
Don't ask unless you wanna know
When you see it in my eyes just turn and go
Thinking bout driving through the desert tonight
Don't know if it'll help but it just might
I'm a million miles away just walk on by

Cause it's 40 miles of bad road
And I got troubles on my mind
It's 40 miles of bad road
And you ain't got the time so walk on by

Do you wanna take drive
Is that what it takes to make you feel alive
You got your own problems and brother I got mine
Cause we all know that's the way it goes
And we all know that it's a long bad road
And sometimes I think t hat's all we'll ever know

Cause it's 40 miles of bad road
And I got troubles on my mind
It's 40 miles of bad road
And you ain't got the time so walk on by
