You've made your decision to leave
There's no turning 'round
Now that you've got a reprieve
You must stand your ground
Some of the others are weak
So you must be strong
$155 won't last very long...
Ma, will we make out
Do you think that this old car
Will last?
Pa, is there some doubt
If our bad luck will
Stay in the past?
Well I'm hoping it's so
But you can't really know til the end
They tell me that all things must change
But they begin again
Listen to the motor and the road
And how does it feel?
Listen with your ears and your hands
On the steering wheel
Ma, will we make out
Do you think that this old car will last?
Pa, is there some doubt
If our bad luck will stay in the past?
Listen now boys
What your ma has told you
There is no way we can tell...
We've got to face this road together
And have some faith
In ourselves
Ma, will we make out
Do you think that this old car will last?
Pa, is there some doubt
If our bad luck will
Stay in the past?
Ma
Will we make out...?
