LyricsLET'S GET THIS SHOW ON THE ROADMark Patterson Copyright 2023 You've been holdin' back long enough I know work's a grind and the year's been rough No point frettin' about that tonight I've got a plan to make you feel alright Hold on tight we're gonna run all night So let's get this show on the road You've got a front row seat awaiting To watch this town in the mirror fading Forget the fantasy you've been sold Put all that other BS on hold Let the ride of your life unfold And let's get this show on the road Aw might be a rough ride but you gotta move forward And I've got just what the doctor ordered I've got this Ford and my old Telecaster And we're headed towards some of that green pasture Oh Lord we're flirtin' with disaster Let's get this show on the road Aw let's go Aw might be a rough ride but you gotta move forward And I've got just what the doctor ordered I've got this Ford and my old Telecaster And we're headed towards some of that green pasture Oh Lord we're flirtin' with disaster Let's get this show on the road Aw let's get this show on the road Yeah let's get this show on the road |
