Our Way Of Life Lyrics - Del Reeves

Standing on the road, walking down the highway 

Ain't going nowhere but that's our way of life 

I never had a lot of ambition 

But I always made my own way 

By turnin' a couple of jobs in some ladies' backyard 

I averaged about a dollar a day 

I wake up early each morning 

And before I started on my way 

I get some cigarettes and a couple of cups of coffee 

A sweepin' the local city cafe 

Standing on the road, walking down the highway 

Ain't going nowhere but that's our way of life 

I never had no one to love me 

Never had girl to call my own 

I never would take a chance to fool with romance 

I guess, I'm too used to being alone 

Nobody wants a drifter 

Well, I gotta keep moving on 

There's nothing to tie me down when I wanna leave town 

Nobody to miss me when I'm gone 

Standing on the road, walking down the highway 

Ain't going nowhere but that's our way of life 

Standing on the road, walking down the highway 

Ain't going nowhere but that's our way of life
