From the recording The Simple Man
Lyrics
My mind is a winding highway
Single lane and it's going slow
I always thought you would turn things my way
But who was I to think I know
It's easy don't believe me never said I was right
I'll admit I gripped the wheel a bit too tight
Never planned it
Left us stranded at the side of the road
In the snow with nowhere to go
The Simple Man with a pocket full of reasons
A pretty girl in a bright blue dress
Slid down the hill on a set of all-seasons
Checked the tread there was nothing left
It's easy don't believe me never said I was right
I'll admit I gripped the wheel a bit too tight
Never planned it
Left us stranded at the side of the road
In the snow with nowhere to go
My mind is a winding highway
Hopes are high but the tank is low
I always thought you would turn things my way
But who was I to think I know? Who was I to think I know?
It's easy don't believe me never said I was right
I'll admit I gripped the wheel a bit too tight
Never planned it
Left us stranded at the side of the road
In the snow with nowhere to go
