Lyrics
A Little Bit of Sunshine
This country boy has driven every road that crossed this land.
A companion of the highway, a guest at every roadside stand.
An aquaintence of some back roads and a town that's far away
But every place I see, is just the place to be, every day, a travlin' day
Cause there' s a little bit of sunshine everywhere I go
A little sadness only I know
You get the good and bad when you're livin' my way
There's a little shade of darkness just before daylight
Long as I'm roamin my day is alright.
I call the highway my home
Now I greet these changing places with a casual sort of smile
If I find a friendly lady I just might stay for a while.
But her lovin cannot keep from the wundering in my bones
Though I might just see another side of me
How I love the constant roam, yes
Instrumental
I might encounter roadblocks or detours along the way.
Pointing in the direction of a silent or darker day
And although the path is tempting or appealing to my eyes
To change my course from a cloud filled force, just might not be wise
Now one of these days that highway run, might lose it's appeal to me
It'll lure me to a stable life that'll set my wanderen free
But until that tune confronts me and demands that I slow down
My feet are going to hit the ground there's another place to see.
Chorus.. Thinking about home....Still wantin' to roam, the highways' home
