There's A Rugged Road Lyrics

There's a rugged road on the prairie

Stretchin' all across the last frontier

There a stranger strives solitary

Blessed is the lonesome pioneer

Roll on, roll on, roll on

Night birds are flyin'

Come on, the light is gone

Hope's slowly dyin'

Tell me how you come ridin' through

Still surveyin' the miles yet to run

On the long and lonely road to kingdom come

She can blaze a trail, through the rumblin'

Dims her guiding light to just a spark

When the hour is low, she comes tumblin'

When the moon is high she gives her heart

Roll on, roll on, roll on

Night birds are flyin'

Come on, the light is gone

Hope's slowly dyin'

Tell me how you come ridin' through

Gainin' steady till this round is won

On the long and lonely road to kingdom come

People far below chasin' pleasures

Offer her directions on the run

Prophets on the path offer treasures

Though she's mighty hungry she takes none

Roll on, roll on, roll on

Night birds are flyin'

Come on, the light is gone

Hope's slowly dyin'

Tell me how you come ridin' through

Blindly faithful but followin' none

On the long and lonely road to kingdom come

When the sun goes down at the right time

She comes windin' through the purple haze

Just a feather's touch in the nighttime

But it'll color all my weary days

Shinin' finer than this earthly sun

On the ragged rugged road to kingdom come

On the ragged rugged road to kingdom come
