It's a hard road  To be walking down  Bare feet on the stone ground  It's a long ride  Across fifty states  Kicking the dust that God made  Sowing seeds on a mine field  Making the best of a bad deal  From the cradle way down to the end of time  It's down to you  Chorus:  You'd better roll with it  You'd better go with it  You'd better roll with it  Way down the big road blue  Way down the big road blue  Way down the big road blue  Big road blue  Big road blue  Back in the city  The streets are cold  It takes a heart of steel to mine a nickel of gold  You hit a brick wall  You could have run  But now you're facing up to a machine gun  Beat it down the avenue  Keep running right on to the only thing that's going to get you through  The road ahead's going to rise to you  Chorus
