words and music by Jonathan Ochshorn (copyright 2003 J. Ochshorn)
1. driving down that dusty road pulling such a heavy load
with no directions to tell me where i’m gonna go
looking down that road ahead should i take that turn instead
don’t ask me brother truth is i just don’t know
2. working at this job so long don’t know if it’s right or wrong
no use thinking ’bout what might have been
just like my daddy said to me “if you finish up that damn degree”
well there’s no telling whether i will lose or win
[chorus] as the world keeps on turning forever
move on living with no regret
boys and girls whether it’s foolish or clever
one life is all you get
[instrumental/chorus]
3. catcher wants a breaking ball pitcher’s waving off the call
he throws a high heater with the series on the line
batter scores the winning run pitcher wants that pitch undone
but nobody can turn back the hands of time
[chorus x2]
