The Road Goes on Forever (永远的路) - Lawrence Welk with The Lennon Sisters[00:00:00]

Sherry was a waitress [00:00:10]

At the only joint in town [00:00:12]

She had a reputation [00:00:14]

As a girl who'd been around [00:00:16]

Down Main Street after midnight [00:00:18]

With a brand new pack of cigs [00:00:20]

A fresh one hanging from her lips [00:00:23]

A beer between her legs [00:00:25]

She'd ride down to the river [00:00:27]

And meet with all her friends [00:00:29]

The road goes on forever[00:00:31]

And the party never ends[00:00:33]

Sonny was a loner [00:00:39]

Bolder than the rest [00:00:41]

He was goin' in the Navy [00:00:43]

But he couldn't pass the test [00:00:45]

So he hung around town [00:00:47]

And he sold a little pot [00:00:49]

The law got wind of Sonny [00:00:51]

And one day he got caught [00:00:54]

But he was back in business [00:00:56]

When they set him free again [00:00:57]

The road goes on forever [00:01:00]

And the party never ends [00:01:02]

Sonny's playin' eight ball [00:01:08]

At the joint where Sherry works [00:01:09]

Some drunken out-of-towner [00:01:12]

Put his hand up Sherry's skirt [00:01:13]

Sonny took his pool cue [00:01:16]

Laid the drunk out on the floor [00:01:18]

Stuffed a dollar in her tip jar [00:01:20]

Walked out of the door [00:01:23]

She's runnin' right behind him [00:01:25]

Reachin' for his hand [00:01:27]

The road goes on forever [00:01:29]

And the party never ends [00:01:31]

They jumped into his pick-up [00:01:37]

Sonny jammed her down in gear [00:01:39]

Sonny looked at Sherry [00:01:41]

Said "Let's get on out of here "[00:01:43]

The stars were high above them [00:01:45]

The moon was in the east [00:01:47]

The sun was setting on them [00:01:50]

When they reached Miami Beach [00:01:51]

They got a motel by the water [00:01:54]

And a quart of Bombay Gin [00:01:56]

The road goes on forever [00:01:58]

And the party never ends [00:02:00]

They soon ran out of money [00:02:06]

But Sonny knew a man [00:02:08]

Who knew some Cuban refugees [00:02:10]

Who dealt in contraband [00:02:12]

Sonny met the Cuban [00:02:15]

In a house just off the route [00:02:16]

With a briefcase full of money [00:02:19]

And a pistol in his boot [00:02:21]

The cards were on the table [00:02:23]

When the law came bustin' in [00:02:25]

The road goes on forever [00:02:27]

And the party never ends [00:02:29]

The Cubans grabbed the goodies [00:02:35]

Sonny grabbed the jack [00:02:37]

He broke the bathroom window [00:02:39]

And climbed on out the back [00:02:41]

Sherry drove the pick-up [00:02:44]

Through the alley on the side [00:02:46]

Where the lawman tackled Sonny [00:02:48]

And was reading him his rights [00:02:50]

She stepped out in the alley [00:02:52]

With a single-shot four-ten [00:02:54]

The road goes on forever [00:02:57]

And the party never ends [00:02:58]

They left the lawman dyin' [00:03:04]

And they made their get away [00:03:06]

Got back to the motel [00:03:08]

Just before the break of day [00:03:10]

Sonny gave her all the money [00:03:12]

And he blew a little kiss [00:03:15]

If they ask you how this happened [00:03:17]

Say I forced you into this [00:03:19]

She watched him as his tail lights [00:03:21]

Disappeared around the bend [00:03:23]

The road goes on forever [00:03:25]

And the party never ends [00:03:27]

There's a main street after midnight [00:03:33]

Just like it was before [00:03:35]

Twenty-one months later [00:03:37]

At the local grocery store [00:03:39]

Sherry buys a paper [00:03:42]

And a cold six-pack of beer [00:03:43]

The headlines read that Sonny [00:03:46]

Is going to the chair [00:03:48]

She pulls back onto main street [00:03:50]

In her new Mercedes-Benz [00:03:52]

The road goes on forever [00:03:54]

And the party never ends[00:03:56]
