《Long Hard Road (The Sharecropper’s Dream) (Live)(Live)》歌词

[00:00:00] Long Hard Road (The Sharecropper's Dream) (Live) (Live) - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

[00:00:06] Way back in my memory there's a scene that I recall

[00:00:11] Of a little run down cabin in the woods

[00:00:17] Where my dad never promised that our blue moon would turn gold

[00:00:23] But he laid awake nights wishin' that it would

[00:00:29] When the world was on our radio hard work was on our minds

[00:00:35] We lived our day to day in plain dirt fashion

[00:00:40] With ol' overalls and cotton balls all strapped across your back

[00:00:46] Man it's hard to make believe there ain't nothing wrong

[00:00:52] But momma kept the bible read and daddy kept our family fed

[00:00:58] And somewhere in between I must have grown

[00:01:04] Cause someday I was dreamin' that a song that I was singin'

[00:01:09] Takes me down the road to where I want to go

[00:01:15] Now I know it's a long hard road

[00:01:33] Sometimes I remember when I stay up late at night

[00:01:39] When the sun up came we got up and went

[00:01:45] In the shadows of a working' day our moonlight hours spent

[00:01:51] Singin' songs along with gramma's radio

[00:01:57] Now I'm beatin' down a ol' blacktop road sleepin' in a sack

[00:02:03] Livin' in my memories all in vain

[00:02:08] 'Cause those city lights ain't all that bright compared to what its like

[00:02:14] To see lightning bugs go dancin' in the rain

[00:02:20] Momma played the guitar then and daddy made the saw blade bend

[00:02:26] And raindrops played the tin roof like a drum

[00:02:32] But I just kept on dreamin' that a song that I was singin'

[00:02:37] Takes me down the road to where my name is known

[00:02:43] Now I'm gone and its a long hard road

[00:02:49] Yes I know its a long hard road
