Where the road is dark   And the seat is soaked   Where the gun is cocked   And the bullet's cold   Where the miles are marked in blood and gold   I'll meet you further on up the road      Got on my dead man's suit   And my smilin' skull ring   My lucky graveyard boots   And a song to sing   I got a song to sing, keep me out of the cold   And I'll meet you further on up the road      Further on up the road   Further on up the road   Where the way is dark   And the night is cold   But one sunny morning we'll rise, I know   And I'll meet you further on up the road      Well I been out in the desert   Was doin' my time   Searching through the dust   Looking for a sign   If there's a light up ahead   Well, buddy, I don't know   But I got this fever   Burning in my soul   So let's take the good times as they come   And I'll meet you further on up the road      Further on up the road   Further on up the road   Where the way is dark   And the night is cold   One sunny morning we'll rise, I know   And I'll meet you further on up the road   One sunny morning we'll rise, I know   And I'll meet you further on up the road   Yeah I'll meet you further on up the road   Well I'll meet you further on up the road
