The Road I Drive
It is simple and plain
A few potholes along the way
It is West Virginia that’s to be expected
It is a road just like any other
Divided into two lanes
One way takes me away
For work
For daily life occurrences
For a weekend getaway
I know this road well
I drive it every day
I know it bends
I know its dips
I know where I want to pretend it is a race track
There are days when I forget I am driving
and end safely at my destination anyway
Up hills
Down hollers
In-between the mountains
Is the road I drive
And it will always bring me back home
No matter where it takes me
