Sonny Landreth Turning With The Century
In the evolution of you and I
Living under the everlasting sky
From a smoke signal to a cell phone
And call waiting where the buffalo roamed
Free spirited gypsy souls
Shedding Eden on a serpentine road
Tires hissing with a mystic drone
Can't you hear that flat snake moan?
Well that's the road rolling out from under our feet
Turning with the century
Like the road rolling out from under out feet
We are turning with the century
Like a sleepy town with a runaway train
We had a full head of steam and fitful dreams
But didn't we make rhythm of the roughest rides
On the back of the beat, side by side?
On the road rolling out from under our feet
Turning with the century
Like the road rolling out from under out feet
We are turning with the century
From an ear to the ground to the info age
And a run in the jungle to a walk in space
The big picture is straining my eyes
But I dig the view and I'm mesmerized
By the road rolling out from under our feet
Turning with the century
Like the road rolling out from under out feet
We are turning with the century
