Lyrics

There's a rugged road on the prairie Stretchin' all across the last frontier There a stranger strives solitary Blessed is the lonesome pioneer Roll on, roll on, roll on, night birds are flyin' Come on, the light is gone, hope's slowly dyin' Tell me how you come ridin' through Still surveyin' the miles yet to run On the long and lonely road to kingdom come He can blaze a trail, though the rumblin' Dims his guiding light to just a spark When the hour is low, he comes tumblin' When the moon is high he gives his heart Roll on, roll on, roll on, night birds are flyin' Come on, the light is gone, hope's slowly dyin' Tell me how you come ridin' through Gainin' steady till this round is won On the long and lonely road to kingdom come People far below chasin' pleasures Offer him directions on the run Prophets on the path offer treasures Though she's mighty hungry he takes none Roll on, roll on, roll on, night birds are flyin' Come on, the light is gone, hope's slowly dyin' Tell me how you come ridin' through Blindly faithful but followin' none On the long and lonely road to kingdom come When the sun goes down at the right time She comes windin' through the purple haze Just a feather's touch in the night time But it'll color all my weary days Shinin' finer than this earthly sun On the ragged, rugged road to kingdom come On the ragged, rugged road to kingdom come
