I was talking to the gypsy about our next of kin
When along came a sound like a mighty wind
The walls did tremble and the earth did shake
It was screeching' through the trees
Hissing like a snake

I peeked out in the dark it was a moon lit night
I saw the devil kneeling' in his car headlights
Glowin' like a poker, just plain as day
Reflected in the chrome
Of his black Chevrolet

Sometimes the road gets dreary
When your travels get long
And the road makes you weary
When your heart has lost it's song
Stay present, don't get distracted
Keep your eyes on the road
And the weight will be subtrated
From the burden of your load.

I turned, I looked.
Everybody was gone
Just a circle of ashes
Burning on the lawn
A black Chevrolet
All bound in flames
Spirits were a flying'
Only cinders did remain


Sometimes the road gets dreary
When your travels get long
And the road makes you weary
When your heart has lost it's song
Stay present, don't get distracted
Keep your eyes on the road
And the weight will be subtracted
From the burden of your load.

I saw my girls the next morning
Beneath the sky above
Evil was gone, replaced by gracious love
When I waved them good bye
I did thank my lucky stars
And drove into the rainbow
In my Thrifty Rent A Car

Burden of your load
