Lyrics
He pulls on the old hard hat,
Another paycheck busted flat,
He looks at the clock and wishes it was time to go home.
Everyday it's the same old thing,
Pick up that hammer, and give er’ a swing,
He hopes to hit the lotto and live the American dream.
But he don't know what he don't know,
Anytime could be his time to go,
You gotta live each day, put your foot on the gas and roll...
He’s on the nine mile road.
Runnin’ down a rainbow lookin’ for that pot of gold.
He’s on the nine mile road.
With one foot on the brake, he’s only gonna get old.
She's headed to the office today
A double caramel latte on the way
She's got a lot on her mind, she's really got a busy day.
Water heaters' broken, there's trouble at home,
Her husband took her money, now she's all alone,
She needs to hit the lotto to live the American dream.
But she don't know what she don't know
Anytime could be her time to go
You gotta live each day, put your foot on the gas and roll...
She’s on the nine mile road.
Runnin’ down a rainbow lookin’ for that pot of gold.
She’s on the nine mile road.
With one foot on the brake, she’s only gonna get old.
GUITAR SOLO
The road is winding, the road is long
but someone will be there to help you along
to carry your load, and get you to the other side
But I don't know what I don't know
Anytime could be my time to go
I gotta live each day, put my foot on the gas and roll...
I'm on the nine mile road.
Runnin’ down a rainbow lookin’ for that pot of gold.
I'm on the nine mile road.
Runnin’ down a rainbow lookin’ for that pot of goldI'm on the nine mile road
I'm on the nine mile road
I'm on the nine mile road
I'm on the nine mile road
