DOWN THE ROAD
Words & music by Rob Anthony & Keith Pulvermacher

The sun sets down on a painted sky
It's always hard to say goodbye
I never leave your smile behind
I take all of you with me

The open road it calls to me
The places I go the people I see
I bring everything they need
And help the world to move along

One mile down and a thousand more to go
I carry the load down the road

The desert heat it keeps me warm
Rain or shine I weather the storm
Your pictures I keep up above
Remind me of the love back home

I tell my son the faces I see
That day-to-day they rely on me
One day you will understand
I help the world to move along

One mile down and a thousand more to go
I carry the load down the road

Waves of grain and the starry nights
Mountaintops and the city lights
Thoughts of you by candle light
They all bring me back to you

One mile down and a thousand more to go
And you know I'm coming back home
I take you with me every where I go
I carry this load down the road

@redneck7006 Drive safe!

I encourage all of you wanting to be a truck driver to get your CDL and hit the road. I was a OTR driver and now am a local driver.

I was gone for 6 weeks and home 7 days.... Not all OTR positions are like that.... It depends who you drive for....

Its truck drivers who keep America rolling forward. Everything you buy and bring home just remember it was on a loaded truck before it got to you.

Awesome song as it is so true 1 mile down and a 1,000 more to go...

I met the love of my life one night when his sister wouldn't say no. Of our four years together, he was on the road. The last time he came home, he had cancer and we lost him a year ago. I would love to learn the road, in honor of him. I don't think there is anything left here for me anymore. A walmart job. Whatever.
