Lost Highway Demo


He said sit down son, we gotta talk
I said it's my life, I'm gonna do what I wanna
I'm gonna crawl and I'm gonna walk
Walk right out of that door
He said I used to be a lot like you
There's nothing you've done that I didn't do
I laughed and said, dad I'm bullet proof
We've been through this before

I couldn't believe it
There was a tear in my old man's eye
When I was leaving
He tried to say goodbye

He says stand tall when you stumble
Stay proud when you're humble
The lessons you've learned, won't be the ones that you planned
Every step up that mountain
Will be more than what's counting
But when you walk through the valley
May you walk like a man

I've seen a couple of miles on a gravel road
You taught me a couple of things that I didn't know
Now, I even got a kid of my own
Starting to sound a lot like me
I learned a little thing called sacrifice
Givin' up on dreams lost a couple fights
All anybody wants is a better life
Something to believe

Stand tall when you stumble
Stay proud when you're humble
All the lessons you've learned, won't be the ones that you planned
Every step up that mountain
Will be more than what's counting
But when you walk through the valley
May you walk like a man

I couldn't believe it
And the tears came to my eyes
It isn't easy
Standing on the other side

I said sit down son, we gotta talk
Hey it's your life, you are gonna do what you wanna
I won't say crawl before you walk
Cause I heard my old man in my mind
He say

Stand tall when you stumble
Stay proud when you're humble
All the lessons you've learned, won't be the ones that you planned
Every step up that mountain
Will be more than what's counting
But when you walk through the valley
May you walk like a man
And when you go on without me
Walk
Like a man

Walk on
