Road Is My Religion

Yeah and this one right here is dedicated to all the road warriors

To everybody who got to go out on the road every year
To make they money the spring and the fall
The 45 city tours we in Idaho one night
And Portland Oregon the next day
Up in Anchorage Alaska and then Australia for three weeks

Its like this
I got my bags packed backpack sittin by the front door
Ipod lab top socks and drawers
The stuff that you need when youre out on tour
Home for one month then gone for two more
Im a rolling stone thats gathering green
Cause my poems is known for packin in teens
And from show to show Im glad to be seen
But my home is home Ill lackin that steam
But on the real I got some bills to pay
My cable just got shut off the other day

Voicemail got a million messages to play
Homies and the haters got a whole lot to say
And oh I just love it because my lifes so public
My business is in the streets and they think nothing of it
And no Im not complainin Im a keep campaignin
Till I reach my goal or I go insane
The road is my religion Ima keep on sinnin
Hope to God Im forgiven for the way that Im livin
The woes and the women and the wheels keep spinnin
Still I wont be forgiven for the way that Im livin
The road is my religion Ima keep on sinnin
Hope to God Im forgiven for the way that Im livin
The woes and the women and the wheels keep spinnin
Still I wont be forgiven for the way that Im livin
Im on a Delta Continental American flight
And I wont be long so you know I pack light
But still I might miss and the way that I kiss you
Gotta know that I love you cause I left my heart with you
The night before I leave for a couple of weeks
Hear you cryin in your sleep taste the tears on your cheek
Its sweet but its bitter the emotion that it triggers

Makes me miss my woman and her home cooked dinner

I wish I never had to leave
Perform for these crowds with my heart on my sleeve
But you still believe and they say you naive
So I gotta keep the faith with every breath that I breathe
It needs to be said that its just not easy
Every night different city
Different women want to please me
I keep it true and I walk on through
Say my prayers and go to sleep after talkin to you
The road is my religion Ima keep on sinnin
Hope to God Im forgiven for the way that Im livin
The woes and the women and the wheels keep spinnin
Still I wont be forgiven for the way that Im livin
The road is my religion Ima keep on sinnin
Hope to God Im forgiven for the way that Im livin
The woes and the women and the wheels keep spinnin
Still I wont be forgiven for the way that Im livin
Standin at the truck stop watchin this
Redneck truck drivers look at me and spit
Im like this is it
This is the life that I chose
A hundred days at home
Two hundred days on the road
But I guess Im addicted
Because I really start to miss it
Dont know what Im chasin
But I know I gotta get it
It aint about fame or a couple of dames
Or a million different faces
With a thousand different names
It aint about praise or the hands being raised
To me it just a job and Im glad that it pays
And when the road starts to call in the spring and the fall
If I dont holla back then my skin starts to crawl
And when I get that itch I gotta pack my bags
Dress up or go home hotels and jet lag
Cant lose my religion cause its all that I have
I keep runnin worldwide till I run out of gas
The road is my religion
Ima keep on sinnin

Hope to God Im forgiven for the way that Im livin
The woes and the women and the wheels keep spinnin
Still I wont be forgiven for the way that Im livin
The road is my religion Ima keep on sinnin
Hope to God Im forgiven for the way that Im livin
The woes and the women and the wheels keep spinnin
Still I wont be forgiven for the way that Im livin

Im so so sorry to each and every girl I didnt call back
After we spent the night together but youre beautiful
I love you man you dont know about me Mr Dibbs
