Desperation Road(Album Version)

Desperation Road (Album Version) - Michael Martin Murphey[00:00:00]

Driving West out on I'm 40[00:00:10]

On my way to taste some California wine[00:00:12]

Broke down family flagged me down[00:00:21]

Near the Arizona line[00:00:24]

Their whole world was in a pickup[00:00:28]

I guess it couldn't pull the load[00:00:32]

It was just our vacation[00:00:38]

But to them it was desperation road[00:00:41]

The lines on their faces[00:00:49]

Told the story of the places that they'd been[00:00:52]

Now their home is a highway[00:00:59]

That never seems to end[00:01:04]

Empty dreams and empty pockets[00:01:07]

Sure can make a heavy load[00:01:11]

To some of us it's just a highway[00:01:18]

But to others it's desperation road[00:01:21]

Their eyes had a sadness[00:01:29]

From another place in time[00:01:31]

A silent reminder that the grapes of wrath[00:01:39]

Still make bitter wine[00:01:43]

And it sure makes you wonder[00:01:49]

'Bout all the seeds our country sows[00:01:53]

Which of us will be the next[00:02:01]

To travel down desperation road[00:02:03]

I helped them start their pickup[00:02:11]

And watched them as they faded out of sight[00:02:13]

Guess the last thing I remember[00:02:21]

Is the faces of the children in my lights[00:02:24]

That night in a motel room[00:02:29]

I have a dream that made my blood run cold[00:02:32]

I saw my own wife and family[00:02:39]

Standing out on desperation road[00:02:43]

And their eyes had a sadness[00:02:50]

From another place in time[00:02:54]

A silent reminder that the grapes of wrath[00:03:01]

Still make bitter wine[00:03:05]

And it sure makes you wonder[00:03:11]

'Bout all the seeds our country sows[00:03:14]

Which of us will be the next[00:03:22]

To travel down desperation road[00:03:25]

Could be your own wife and family[00:03:32]

Standing out on desperation road[00:03:35]
