Weary Road

I went out driving just the other night
 Far away from all the city lights
 The music in the car was turned down low
 I was lookin' for a place I used to know
 Called Weary Road
 Weary Road
 We used to meet there in the days of old
 Weary Road
 It was late, I almost fell asleep
 But to you this one promise I would keep
 To meet you 'neath the tree with leaves of red
 When next the blue moon did raise its head
 On Weary Road
 Weary Road
 We used to meet there in the days of old
 Weary Road
 I brought my father's pistol and some rope
 Within my heart there nested a strange hope
 I wondered how you'd look and who you'd be
 And if you'd still have time for one like me
 On Weary Road
 Weary Road
 We used to meet there in the days of old
 Weary Road
