Soft Shoulder Hard Road

Soft Shoulder Hard Road
Step inside my world, darlin’ – see whatcha see
There’s another side of the coin, baby – inside of me
Well I front my feelings slowly and I step down pretty hard
So don’t you go bare footin’ in my backyard

It’s a hard road with a soft shoulder
Drive straight ahead – hangin’ by a single thread

Sometimes I stumble – sometimes I fall
But when the **** gets too thick , hey well I can rise above it all
I’ve been pushed around and I’ve been shoved
I’ve been mistreated and I’ve been loved

It’s a hard road with a soft shoulder
Drive straight ahead – hangin’ by a single thread

The smoke and mirrors show – I’m not the one you know
This man inside of me – is not the one you see
Inside this solid frame – there lies a thinkin brain
This shoulder’s soft I’m told – when it’s a hard, hard road

So step into my world, baby’ – see whatcha see
My life’s been built up slowly, and it let’s me be me
Well I lift my shoulders higher and it keeps me pretty strong
And that’s why I’m not harder than the roads I’m on

It’s a hard road with a soft shoulder
Drive straight ahead – hangin’ by a single thread
It’s a hard road with a soft shoulder
Drive straight ahead – hangin’ by a single thread
It’s a hard road with a soft shoulder
Drive straight ahead – hangin’ by a single thread
It’s a hard road with a soft shoulder
Drive straight ahead – hangin’ by a single thread
