October Road

Well, I'm-a going back down, maybe one more time

Deep down home, October road

And I might like to see that little friend of mine

That I left behind once upon a time

Oh, promised land and me still standing

It's a test of time, it's a real good sign

Let the sun run down right behind the hill

I know how to stand there still

'Til the moon rise up behind the pine, oh, Lord

October road, an October road

October road

It's the big-time life that I can't abide

Raise my rent, tan my hide

Sweet call of the countryside

Go down slow, open wide

I did my time, and it changed my mind, I'm satisfied, oh

(I got so) I got so low down, fed up, my God

I could hardly move (I could hardly move)

Won't you come on, my brother (yeah), get on up

And help me find my groove

Keep me walking, October road

Keep me walking in the sunshine, yeah

A little friend of mine

October road

Help me now

October road

Oh, oh, oh, October road
