Steve's Last Ramble
Steve's Last Ramble: A Heartfelt Journey Home
Lyrics
I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' round
I am contemplating ending my wandering lifestyle
Hangin' up my highway shoes
Deciding to stop traveling, putting away the shoes associated with the highway
Lately when I walk they make a hollow sound
Recently, my footsteps sound empty, resonating a sense of loneliness
And they carry me away from you
The emptiness takes me away from someone special
Every night I lay my body down
Every night I lie down, feeling the absence of someone in my arms
My empty arms just leave me blue
My arms being empty leaves me feeling sad
So I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' 'round
Considering ending the wandering lifestyle for the sake of love
And find my way back home to you
Seeking a path to return home to the person I care about
I have always been the travelin' kind
I have always been inclined towards a life of travel
A million miles behind me now
A million miles of travel experiences behind me
I kept on followin' that thin white line
Continued following the road, represented by the thin white line
But now I want to turn around
Expressing a desire to change course and turn around
I only lived to hear that highway sound
Life's purpose was hearing the sound of the highway
High and lonesome - low and blue
Describing the highs and lows of the traveling experience
Now I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' 'round
Thinking about ending the wandering lifestyle for love
And find my way back home to you
Searching for a way back home to a loved one
So say goodbye to all my ramblin' pals
Bidding farewell to fellow travelers
Ol' Highway Dave and Southside Sue
Mentioning specific individuals associated with the highway lifestyle
I don't believe they'll miss me anyhow
Expressing doubt that these companions will miss the speaker
What's one less wayward soul or two
Reflecting on the insignificance of one or two fewer wandering souls
Down the road they'll pass the jug around
Anticipating a gathering where they share drinks and sing melancholic songs
And they'll sing them lonesome highway blues
Imagining the continuation of the lonesome highway blues without the speaker
But me I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' 'round
Considering ending the wandering lifestyle despite the familiar scene
And find my way back home to you
Expressing the desire to find the way back home to a loved one
