Lyrics:

I'm rollin' down a gray highway, my heart a dusty gauge,

The road hums like a distant choir but worries in my cage.

A Road Gator's out ahead, teeth glitterin' in the sun,

Feels like the future's blown apart, like every dream undone.

Road Gator Blues, on the highway where the wild winds ride,

Road Gator Blues, the night is long but I'll keep my stride.

When a tire's workin' right and there's nothing wrong,

It hums down the road, it hums down the road, steady and strong.

You got the Road Gator Blues.

Life may slip in spirals, like a tire ready to blow,

Thought the world had ended, that's only one more road to know.

A road gator quivers and shakes along this endless lane,

It's part of the journey, not the final reel of your chain.

Road Gator Blues, on the highway where the true roads test you,

Road Gator Blues, keepin' faith when the sky is blue and blue.

When you feel the wear and wearin' down, and hope starts to fade,

It hums down the road, it hums down the road, don't be afraid.

If the weight gets heavy and you're feelin' lost in the dar,

Talk to someone you trust, let a friend lift up your spark.

We all got struggles, that wobbly tire ready to blow,

But with a little repair, you'll roll again and grow.

Have faith you'll be whole again, this road's not your final say,

The Road Gator's just a checkpoint on the longer, brighter way.

Hanging in there you'll be renewed, you'll find your brighter tune.

The storm will pass, the morning comes, you'll rise with a new noon.

Road Gator Blues, on the highway where the true roads test you,

Road Gator Blues, keepin' faith while the night still specks you.

When a tire's workin' right and there's nothing wrong,

It hums down the road, it hums down the road, steady and strong.

You got the Road Gator Blues.

And if you're fallin' hard, remember you're not alone on this ride,

Reach out for help, let somebody stand by your side.

Don't let your life be a gator on the highway.
