Verse
Drinkin’ black coffee in a little motel lobby
Waitin’ on the band to come down
I’ve been travellin’ across sectors and little station wagon
Draggin’ a trailer around
I do the drivin’ they do the drinkin’
That’s how I keep us alive
We play the good show last night and wake call
But we still got an eight-hour drive
Chorus
If I ever get old, I’ll still love the road
Still love the way that it was
And when the last song’s been played
I look back and say I sure had a beautiful time
Verse
And we’re packed up a roller
Who cares where we’re goin’
The radio’s play the sweet country sounds
Got the sun on my skin
My hair’s in the wind
And I will love the windows rolled out
Chorus
If I ever get old, I’ll still love the road
Still love the way that it was
And when the last song’s been played
I look back and say I sure had a beautiful time
Bridge
They’re headin’ down the party
And the backseat will harden
Looks like they’re all out of beer
Laughin’ the good jokes
Rollin’ the good smoke
White honky hall pass that one up here
Chorus
If I ever get old, I’ll still love the road
I still love the way that it was
When the last song’s been played
I look back and say I sure had a beautiful time
I sure had a beautiful time
