i ve always wondered what the future is holdin for me who will i marry and what will my occupation be the answer came to me in a song the explanation was not very long a voice ran through my head the chords came in went but i still remember what it said the road ahead is mighty long with twists and turns rights and wrongs the road ahead goes on and on but at the end you ll be at home your time is like the highway rollin through the cities that you know from san fran to new york so close your eyes and live inside your mind let this music take you down the lines cause time is a mystery an unknown melody it always seems to get ahead the road ahead is mighty long with twists and turns rights and wrongs the road ahead goes on and on but at the end you ll be at home at the end you ll sing this song
