Lyrics
No bottle's gonna help me sleep
No alcoholic drink will provide comfort for my sleep
No woman's gonna make me strong
No romantic relationship will give me strength
Two rights don't make a wrong
The combination of two correct things doesn't justify a wrong decision
I've been on this road too long
I've been traveling on this life journey for an extended period
No breeze will know my name
No gentle wind will recognize or remember my identity
No children gonna call me home
No offspring will beckon me back to a family or home
No dog's gonna take my bone
No one will steal or undermine my possessions or achievements
I've been on this road too long (And I've…)
Reiteration of the prolonged nature of the journey
Gotta keep moving on
I must continue moving forward
Gotta keep moving on
Emphasis on the necessity to keep progressing
No brothel's gonna take my sex
No brothel or place of pleasure will control or define my sexuality
No church is gonna hear me pray
No religious institution will hear or guide my prayers
No sign'll lead my way
No visible signs will direct my path in life
I've been on this road too long (And i've)
Reiteration of the extended duration on the road
Gotta keep moving on
Continued emphasis on the necessity to keep moving forward
Gotta keep moving on
Repetition of the importance of continual progress
Gotta keep moving on
Stressing the imperative nature of moving on
Gotta keep moving on
Emphasis on the ongoing need to keep moving forward
No way I'm ever gonna change
No possibility of changing the predetermined course
It's too late, I've chosen my fate
Acknowledging that it is too late, and the destiny has been chosen
No way that I can ever go back
Expressing the irreversible nature of the past, emphasizing no possibility of turning back
No way that I can ever go back
-No way that I can ever go back
-I've been on this road to long (And i've)
Reiteration of the prolonged nature of the journey
Gotta keep moving on
Repeating the imperative to keep moving forward
Gotta keep moving on
-I've gotta keep I've gotta keep I've gotta keep
-I've gotta keep moving on
-(Gotta keep moving)
-Gotta keep moving on
-Gotta keep moving on
-Gotta keep moving on
-Gotta keep moving on
-Gotta keep moving on
Final emphasis on the necessity to keep progressing
