Gentle On My Mind - King of the Road[00:00:00]

It's knowing that your door is always open[00:00:09]

And your path is free to walk[00:00:12]

That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag rolled up[00:00:18]

And stashed behind your couch[00:00:21]

And it's knowing I'm not shackled by forgotten[00:00:26]

Words and bonds[00:00:29]

And the ink stains that have dried up on some line[00:00:31]

That keeps you in the back roads[00:00:38]

By the rivers of my memory[00:00:40]

That keeps you ever gentle on my mind [00:00:42]

It's not clinging to the rocks[00:00:49]

And ivy planted on their columns now that binds me[00:00:50]

Or something that somebody said[00:00:58]

Because they thought we fit together walking[00:01:00]

It's just knowing that the world[00:01:06]

Will not be cursing or forgiving when I walk along[00:01:08]

Some railroad tracking fine[00:01:12]

That you're waving from the back roads[00:01:17]

By the river of my memory[00:01:20]

And for hours you're just gentle on my mind [00:01:22]

Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines[00:01:29]

And the junkyards and the highways come between us[00:01:31]

And some other woman's cryin' to her mother[00:01:37]

'Cause she turned and I was gone[00:01:41]

I still might run in silence [00:01:47]

Tears of joy might stain my face[00:01:48]

And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind[00:01:51]

But not to where[00:01:58]

I cannot see you walkin' on the back roads[00:01:59]

By the rivers flowin' gentle on my mind[00:02:02]

I dip my cup of soup back[00:02:09]

From a gurglin' cracklin' cauldron[00:02:11]

In some train yard[00:02:13]

My beard a rustlin' coal pile[00:02:18]

And a dirty hat pulled low across my face[00:02:20]

Through cupped hands 'round a tin can[00:02:27]

I pretend to hold you to my breast and find[00:02:29]

That you're waitin' from the back roads[00:02:35]

By the rivers of my memory ever smilin' [00:02:38]

Ever gentle on my mind[00:02:41]
