silent shadows of the night
faded with the morning light
we just wrote another song
maybe a word or two is wrong
there´s so much that could be said
it´s hard to write it in a line
but when the final word is read
maybe something could be said
for all the brothers of the road
just like you, we bear a heavy load
been through hell and back again
if we don´t lose we´re bound to win

somehow they gave it all a name
just like a southern hurricane
we play our music like a storm
they say a brand new sound was born
we´re all brothers of the road
just like you, we bear a heavy load
been through hell and back again
if we don´t lose we´re bound to win

some of us fell along the way
we came together, not too proud to pray
but the music must go on
so there´s no one left out there all alone
we´re just brothers of the road
casting shadows in the night
big wheels rolling on and on
but everything´s gonna be all right
