Keep Your Feet on the Road

เนื้อเพลง

[Verse 1] You found your chair where the warm lights fall, A velvet booth and a drink for all. The band played sweet, and the room said stay, While tomorrow kept its miles away. You learned each name at the corner bar, Made every stranger feel less far. But every promise you meant to keep Got traded for another hour of sleep. [Pre-Chorus] Comfort can carry you through the night, Till it turns the key and locks the door. A soft place to land is a beautiful thing, But it can ask for more and more. [Chorus] Soul, keep your feet on the road, Love what you love, but don't make it your load. R&B heart, let the good times roll, But discipline keeps a hand on your soul. When the easy road starts taking its toll, Turn back, turn back, don't surrender control. [Verse 2] The horns hit gold and the floorboards shook, You knew every break, every borrowed look. Funk in your step, sweet smoke in the air, A promise of peace that was never quite there. The bills stacked up by the telephone, Your people called, but you stayed alone. The road got wide, then the signs went by; You called it freedom as the days ran dry. [Pre-Chorus] Comfort can carry you through the night, Till it turns the key and locks the door. A soft place to land is a beautiful thing, But it can ask for more and more. [Chorus] Soul, keep your feet on the road, Love what you love, but don't make it your load. R&B heart, let the good times roll, But discipline keeps a hand on your soul. When the easy road starts taking its toll, Turn back, turn back, don't surrender control. [Bridge] Put both hands steady on the wheel, Name what hurts and let it be real. Call your brother, open the blinds, Make one small promise and honor it tonight. The song can lift you, the crowd can sing, But a heart needs more than a borrowed wing. [Final Chorus] Soul, keep your feet on the road, Love what you love, but don't make it your load. R&B heart, let the good times roll, But discipline keeps a hand on your soul. When the easy road starts taking its toll, Turn back, turn back, come home whole. [Outro] Come home whole, come home whole, Let the rhythm warm you, not take control.
