Thank God for the Road

	There's the sky, here's the earth
	This is the road for all it's worth
	It's a ribbon, it's a river, it's a wave
	It's an arrow and it's a snake
	It's asleep and it's awake
	And it stretches from the cradle to the grave
	Thank God for the road
	And the hubcaps and the headlights
	And the mudflaps and the taillights
	And the dim lights and the bright lights
	Thank God for the road
	And the miles that come between us
	The little rains that come to clean us
	The guardian angels who have seen us
	Thank God for the road
	No matter what it takes to drive it
	Life and death can seem so private
	Still you think you will survive it
	Thank God for the road
	There's the sky, here's the earth
	This is the road for all it's worth
	It's a ribbon, it's a river, it's a wave
	It's an arrow and it's a snake
	It's asleep and it's awake
	And it stretches from the cradle to the grave
	Thank God for the road
	The soft shoulders you can cry on
	The hard nerves you rely on
	The fast curves you can die on
	Thank God for the road
	And the stars that shine above it
	No matter what you once thought of it
	You always knew you'd come to love it
	Thank God for the road
	And those old telephone poles
	A cup of coffee and a sweet roll
	When you're trying to save your own soul
	Thank God for the road
