lyrics

THE ROAD OF FLIGHT
(Claire Nivard)

'Cross red and gray lands
Past the Great Divide
Up and down the mountains
Driving day and night
From the desert to the valleys
Rolling on the road of flight

We're leaving the Dust Bowl behind
They took our farm, they took our pride
'Got no place to call our home
Now we're strangers in the land where we were born

Listen to the motor
Careful with the wheels
Listen to that ol' jug pounding up the hill
'Gotta get to Bakersfield
'Gotta hold on to Mother Road

We're leaving the Dust Bowl behind
They took our farm, they took our pride
'Got no place to call our home
Now we're strangers in the land where we were born
Now we're strangers in the land where we were born
