The Boxmasters and Billy Bob Thornton Somewhere down the road album




Away, away

(Billy Bob Thornton/JD Andrew/Jon Rauhouse)

Wonder Where That Old Smokin' Truck Is Goin'
How Much Longer Will That
One Tail Light Keep Glowin'
How Much Pain Has That
Tied Down Mattress Bedded
Where Are That Couple And
Those Hollow Eyed Children Headed

Did Life Crash Suddenly Or Did It Come In Stages
How Long Did They Soldier In This War Of Wages
How Many Miles Will Pass Before
They Finally Break Down

The Promise Of A Kinder Gentler Nation
Feels More Like A Shake Down

Where Did They Go
How 'Bout It You There In The Know
Or Is It Easier To Say
Go Away, Away

How Many Miracles Did Daddy
Kneel And Pray For
There's Not Much Out There That
Hope And Tears Will Pay For

Hearts Beat Faster At Each Puzzling Intersection
Somewhere, Nowhere
Anywhere Are All In The Same Direction

Do They Have A Place
You Know They Helped You Win The Race
Or Does It Get You Through The Day
To Look Away, Away
