Life’s Road Winds

“Life’s Road Winds” [Verse 1] Rollin’ down life’s highway, Haven’t worried in a while, Up ahead without a warning There’s a sign says “Detour — half a mile.” New road cuts through rough country, Lost, you just can’t tell, The terrain gets worse with every mile, Feels like crossin’ into hell. [Chorus] Sometimes that’s the way life’s road travels, Always expectin’ a straight line, You hope for the path of least resistance, But that ain’t the way life’s road winds. [Verse 2] You see bright lights in the distance, Swear they’re slippin’ farther away, Try to find a road that leads you to ’em, But it dead-ends, blocks brighter days. [Chorus] Sometimes that’s the way life’s road travels, Always expectin’ a straight line, You hope for the path of least resistance, But that ain’t the way life’s road winds. [Bridge] Sometimes you reach your destination, Sometimes you feel completely lost, Then there’s nights you keep on drivin’, Wonder if the journey’s worth the cost. [Final Chorus] Yeah, sometimes that’s the way life’s road travels, Always expectin’ a straight line, You hope for the path of least resistance, But that ain’t the way… No, that ain’t the way life’s road winds.
