I must have traveled down a thousand roads. Been so many places, seen so many faces, Always on my way to something new. But it doesn't matter, 'Cause no matter where I go, Every road leads back, Every road just seems to lead me back to you.
And they lay down behind me To sleep beside the road Till the morning has come Where they know they will find me With my maps and my faith in the distance Moving farther on
Is he washed in the blood as well as the water? Does he make enough money to take my daughter Down the road?
--I heard this only once, in a grocery store that plays country music. The chorus was "down the road" and it had a "Sunrise/Sunset" (Fiddler on the Roof) feel to it.

I must have traveled down a thousand roads.
Been so many places, seen so many faces,
Always on my way to something new.
But it doesn't matter,
'Cause no matter where I go,
Every road leads back,
Every road just seems to lead me back to you.
(notably sung by Bette Midler)
