[Verse 1:]
I know somewhere they are drivin' lovin' women
Makin' money all the time
And ever since I was a little boy that's all I've ever had on the mind
I had always been a music man I loved anything that rolls
And all I want is a piece of the road

[Chorus:]
Piece of the road a part of that traffic that's passin' me by
Piece of the road a piece of that great big pie in the sky
Want you to use me like you want to Lord
But lemme carry a part of the load cause all I want is a piece of the road

[Verse 2:]
Well forgive me if I love it just a little too much but you see
I have always been a part of the road and the road is such a big part of me
Well each man has his calling and mine is to rattle and roll
And all I want is a piece of the road

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
Well, I ain't too good but I ain't too bad
Though I've been sorry for some things that I've done
I've got to have a piece of the road before I reach the end of my run
You know time ain't no friend to no man
I've got to get a road on this show
Cause all I want is a piece of the road
[Chorus]

[Outro:]
Now I wanna go to Dallas Fort Worth Los Angeles New York Chicago
St Louis Olive Hill Kentucky
All I travel around and see all of them people and pick and sing
