Burning Bridges (On A Rocky Road)

I talked to an old man, he had a bible in a sack

He looked like mother nature had a heart attack

He said I used to have money and visions too

But love and life has changed my points of view

He said things have changed for the better

Things have changed in the weather

Well you got to go down easy when you go

So don't go burnin' bridges on a rocky road

Now johnny left sally, but she didn't cry

She said johnny taught the devil to lie

Now she stands alone and does her own thing

She don't miss him and she sure don't miss the pain

Don't go burnin' bridges on a rocky road

It seems it all hinges on how we carry your load

Now bonnie she played in a rock-n-roll band

But her hour glass was out of sand

She sang one last song, yeah and this one took

Now we all stand in line and we pay to take a look

So don't go burnin' bridges on a rocky road

You just don't go burnin' bridges on a rocky road
