Steel Train – Road Song lyrics

When I was a little kid,
My father told me to see the world for him
So I took my things
And painted big sunsets from the vast oceans
Send your dad a note. You made it, kid. You're on the road.
Send your dad a note. You made it, kid. You're on the road.

Mother, teach me about the country
Can you tell a lies from a lies that you see (?)
Now Mother, can you tell me
Where this road is gonna lead

Just let yourself go and sell your soul to the road
Just let yourself go and sell your soul to the road

Don't you know that I getting off of my back (?)
I see the way that have blown on the map (?)
Cause I know that my steel train
I'll ride it to the end

The skies and desert rain
Have passed my life by the course of steel train
And I'll ride to the end of the rails
I'd tell my father of all my tales

I said everything I saw, I'm singing, "I love you"
and the reason that we're here all because of you

Don't you know that I getting off of my back (?)
You see the way when my darling (???) on your sack (?)
You know that I know that my steel train
I'll ride it till the end
You know that I know that my steel train
I'll ride it till the end
And I know that my steel train...
