Hank Linderman - Red Dirt Road lyrics

Do you remember Not long ago When we could just up and fly away? Now things are different Now we must plan We do our work before we play That clear, blue green water Will soon be in sight We'll take as long as it may take 'Cuz we have each other And it's only right That we persevere for goodness sake Right now we sow those seeds But oh my, just wait and see (When we) Get on down that mountain side Take the red dirt road When you reach that water then you'll know You don't need no diamond ring You don't need no clothes When you walk on down that red dirt road I'm only human I'm just a man I seek contentment when I can So when I am weary Head in my hand I think about my earthly promise land I'd like to cut to the chase But I know we've got to wait ('till we) Get on down that mountain side Take the red dirt road When you reach that water then you'll know You don't need no diamond ring You don't need no clothes When you walk on down that red dirt road It won't be quite the same Once we were young and wild But one thing will never change It's that burning in our hearts You know it's been there from the start Right now we sow those seeds But oh my, just wait and see (til' we) Get on down that mountain side Take the red dirt road When you reach that water then you'll know You don't need no diamond ring You don't need no clothes When you walk on down that red dirt road You don't need a single thing Just get up and go There's a rainbow down that red dirt road When you walk on down that red dirt road When you walk on down that red dirt road
