Lyrics
Sonny boy, if he had the choice
He'd raise some hell and make some noise
Uh huh, oh yeah
He was cool as a cucumber
Even in the heat of the hot summer
Uh huh, oh yeah
He used to fly
His old dirty grey Impala
Now he just cries
'Cross the bayou of Louisiana
And he's so far away
From his dreams
And he can't go back now to New Orleans
'Cause she's still there and life ain't fair
And this road goes on forever, forever
Na na na na
Hey
Well she could wrap the truth in a lie
She was everything Sonny boy had to try
Uh huh, oh no
And she was sweet, she was cruel
She was sure good reason why he got the blues
Uh huh, oh yeah
And ain't that the cost
When you love like this
Now Sonny boy's lost
Ain't got a clue who he is
No
He's so far away
From his dreams
And he won't go back now to New Orleans
'Cause she's still there and life ain't fair
And this road goes on forever, forever
Na na na na
Ah, play it Ray
Well that old quarter down on Bourbon Street
It keeps calling him home
Yeah it does
But even someone tough like Sonny boy
You know he ain't that strong
Well he's so far away
From his dreams
He'll never go back now to New Orleans
'Cause she's still there and life ain't fair
And this road goes on forever, forever
Forever, forever
Forever and ever
Uh huh
Yeah
Hey
Uh huh
Yeah
