This comes from the CD booklet for Dave's This Town CD, issued in 1993 on the Vanguard label. I hadn't paid attention to the song before - it's a good one.

THE ROAD GOES ON FOREVER
(Dave Mallett)

I had a sweetheart in my younger days
I thought she'd leave me never
But some things go and leave no trace
But the road goes on forever
I've had good friends in my life
Around me they did gather
And without them I'd have surely died
But the road goes on forever

When I fell from the arms of my lover
When I fell from the long arm of the law
As I dove down deep in my fitful sleep
Highway is all I saw

And there ain't no sure hand in this deal
We all just take whatever
But nights like this I always feel
That the road goes on forever

When I fell from the arms of my lover
When I fell from the luck of the draw
As I dove down deep in my fitful sleep
Highway is all that I saw

Sometimes when I'm standing still
It hits me like a shiver
That there ain't no mansion on no hill
Just a road that goes on forever.
