Somebody told me a long time ago Say son don't leave your feet out In the cold driving snow Don't let them tell you son, that you're a fool Just cause you didn't learn it all in school Somebody told me yesterday Don't let your dreams fade away Don't let them tell you son, that you're a fool Just Cause you didn't learn it all in school I'm walkin' Down that long road again I'm walkin' Down that long road again One man stands behind a fence Another man stands behind a tree One man sits behind a golden desk Pushing his thoughts over on me Singin' mother don't you cry Don't you cry on this golden night If you may or if you might Somebody's gonna cry tonight I'm walkin' Down that long road again I'm walkin' Down that long road again Oh and she cried all night long Make it or make it wrong Somebody wants to fly tonight Somebody's gonna cry tonight One man's mother standing at the altar One man's brother drinking down his holy water Singin' mother don't you cry Don't you cry on this golden night Somebody's gonna cry tonight I'm walkin' Down that long road again I'm walkin' Down that long road again
