Laura Overstreet: Have a listen
Dusty Road
(Laura Overstreet)
Music and Lyrics by Laura Overstreet
I've taken some very lengthy road trips in my day. I love being on the road because I don't worry about anything when I'm driving. There's nothing like freedom.
Now I'm driving down a dusty road
Gravel's flying 'neath this heavy load
People from the past are calling me but I'm trying to be free
See my babies as they sleep away
They'll be happy when we're there today
I hear their breathing and it comforts me
I want them to be free
Kind of like a locust tryin' to shed it's skin
And you could be there too but you've got to begin
Getting greener now on day two
I'm not crying when I think of you
My mind is filling with some other things
Not just wedding rings
See the mountains there on day three?
There I'll find a road to carry me
To a place where the water's cool
Island in the sea
Kind of like a locust tryin' to shed it's skin
You could be there too,
But you've got to begin
