I lost my truck to a freight train
The first day of July
We was walking down the path to the river
The brakes failed and the train rolled by
I've been searching all over
Trying to find the time for you
But if we can't find it we'll make it
That's what we'll do
I got a friend who's solid as the truth
He walks in comfort like a good pair of shoes
He's been telling me for many long years
Put down the bottle and kick it in gear
I've been searching all over
Trying to find the time for you
But if we can't find it we'll make it
That's what we'll do
The roof only leaks when it rains really hard
The fire goes out when you let down your guard
Well it's good to reminisce about the days gone by
Down in Louisiana
I've been searching all over
Trying to find the time for you
But if we can't find it we'll make it
That's what we'll do
I don't know if it's all in my head
Someday you know we'll all be dead
Maybe it doesn't have to feel so bad
What we lose is all we've had
I've been searching all over
Trying to find the time for you
But if we can't find it we'll make it
That's what we'll do
That's what we'll do
That's what we'll do now
That's what we'll do
That's what we'll do
That's what we'll do
That's what we'll do
That's what we'll do
That's what we'll do
