John Denver
"Gravel On The Road"

This song was first released on the some days are diamonds album. it is the only album it has been released on.
If our lives could lie before usLike a straight and narrow highwaySo that we could see foreverLong before we took the rideWe would never look to heavenMke a wish or climb a mountain'cause we'd always know the answerTo what's on the other side
But life ain't no easy freewayJust some gravel on the roadYou pay for ev'ry mile you goAnd you spraed some dust aroundBut we all have destinationsAnd the dust will settle downThis life ain't no easy freewayJust some gravel on the road

So let's walk the road togetherWho knows what we'll find tomorrowMaybe good times maybe sorrowBoth are waitin' round the bendGiven time two hearts discoverWhat they're feelin' for each otherAt the best we'll end up loversAt the least we'll make a friend
But life ain't no easy freewayJust some gravel on the roadYou pay for ev'ry mile you goAnd you spread some dust aroundBut we all have destinationsAnd the dust will settle downThis life ain't no easy freewayJust some gravel on the road
