DON’T WRESTLE WITH THE ROAD

Runnin’ around with your head in your hands.
Forced to juggle life’s demands.
Got no time to wonder why
the price of life is getting so high.
And you never seem to find peace of mind... No!
Feels like you must have been betrayed.
When you’re feelin’ this way...

CHORUS:
Take it smooth, slow and easy
don’t wrestle with the road. Let go.
Take a break from your journey
and rest your weary soul.
Don’t wrestle with the road. (Repeat Line)

Drivin’ blind on a road with no end.
Seldom knowing where it bends.
Got no sense of where you are,
where you’re going, or how far.
So many miles spent on the road
they’re taking they’re toll.
There’s just one thing left to do.
Take a time-out for you. And...

REPEAT CHORUS

Yes, there will be detours. Most you will not see.
They’ll mess with your emotions
and knock you off your feet.
Signs say, “Don’t stop.” Signs say, “Don’t go.”
What’cha gonna do, when the signs within you say,
“Take some time for you?”

REPEAT CHORUS

Don’t wrestle with the road.
