We played king of the mountain out on the end

The world come chargin' up the hill, and we were women and men

Now there's so much that time, time and memory fade away

We got our own roads to ride and chances we gotta take

We stood side by side each one fightin' for the other

We said until we died we'd always be blood brothers



Now the hardness of this world slowly grinds your dreams away

Makin' a fool's joke out of the promises we make

And what once seemed black and white turns to so many shades of gray

We lose ourselves in work to do and bills to pay

And it's a ride, ride, ride, and there ain't much cover

With no one runnin' by your side my blood brother



On through the houses of the dead past those fallen in their tracks

Always movin' ahead and never lookin' back

Now I'm out here on this road

Alone on this road tonight

[I] close my eyes and feel so many

friends around me

In the early evening light

And the miles we have come

And the battles won and lost

Are just so many roads traveled

So many rivers crossed

And I ask God for the strength

And faith in one another

'Cause it's a good night for a ride

'Cross this river to the other side

My blood brothers
