Now I saw a man stand up one day to fight and save his life
He's just a common worker, supporting his kids and his wife
He put a plug in his jug and things looked up for sure
But the whole damn thing of it was, there is no blasted cure

Now I saw a man stand up one day to fight and save his life
He's just a common worker, supporting his kids and his wife
He put a plug in his jug and things looked up for sure
But the whole damn thing of it was, there is no blasted cure

I've seen a few men go 'The Road of the Righteous'
With just a few men traveled 'This Old Lonely Path'
Oh, I've seen a few men go 'The Road of the Righteous'
By God, I'm sure I've seen some more go that blessed way

Hey, it's gonna, take some foot work to get you on your way
They'll be pit-falls and some cat-calls but hard you must persist
'Cause life is so precious, we only got one shot
You move along and you stay, God, strong all the treasures will be got

Well, I've seen a few men go 'The Road of the Righteous'
With just a few men traveled 'This Old Lonely Path'
Oh, I've seen a few men go 'The Road of the Righteous'
By God, I'm sure I've seen some more go that blessed way

Go that blessed way
