The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Corduroy Road

Sometimes you're up

Sometimes you're down

Sometimes fate can kick you around

When it's winter up here

It's summer down under

Sometimes clear skies

Sometimes thunder

Life is a Corduroy Road

Well me and my honey

And my 61 'vette now

I had to sell everything else

To get out of debt now

I always dreamed about

Cruisin' down Route 66 yeah

Well I finally got to do it

But there ain't much left now

Life is a Corduroy Road

What's goin' on

As you get a little older

Feel a little bolder

Got no time to lose

Who wants to die

With a quiver full of arrows

Pull the string back now

Let'em all loose, yeah

Life is a Corduroy Road

That's right

Look out now
