Alive Lyrics

Runnin like a frieght train, rollin as fast as we can

One more mountain, just around the bend

Soarin like an eagle, but never high, we'll never know

Well it's one more rest stop, then it's off to the show



We drove through the dark past, as many did

Still movin fast...

A lonesome shot of highways, but this one's gonna pass

Climbin on the last peak, and the last train, yeah boarded down...

We found our destination, in this sorry little town...



HOPE...We make it home tonight

HOPE...We make it home alive, live, live...



So we started pickin, and the doorman, he winks an eye

We won the crowd approval, but still we gonna die

So I looked toward the dobro, and to the bass

He rang a note...

A blanket of sorrows, let's head on down the road...



Rollin like a frieght train, headed home, not lookin back

The sheriff right behind us, he's ready to attack

Headin back a short cut, and the dirt roads

Will lead the way

Stop and rest the next town, before we gotta play



HOPE...We make it home tonight

HOPE...We make it home alive, live, live...



We found our ole homestead, and we found a place

To lay our heads

Yeah, no more pickin, for those cowboys again

We'll stick to the good ones and for a buck

We'll sing a song

Please will you excuse us, cuz we won't be stayin long



HOPE...We make it home tonight

HOPE...We make it home alive, live, live...
