Lyrics

Come what may no one knows
One day it’s sunny and the next it snows
So keep on rollin (along), come what may

wet and wading through the shallow streams
young john brody had some big ol’ dreams
(said) “i will leave this town
become a singer like my pappy was before he up and drowned”
one week later brody swam to his death
even a bucket could ya ‘less you holdin your breath

Come what may no one knows
One day it’s dried up and the next it flows
So keep on rollin (along), come what may

Drunk and driving down the boulevard
Sweet jane benson had a life so hard
(said) “I will change my plan
become the woman I was meant to be without this awful man”
six drinks later janey gathered her pride
but Even a bottle could kill ya if take it for a ride

Come what may no one knows
One day it’s hidden and the next it shows
so keep on rollin (along), come what may

Soft and sinkin into modern life
Bill hanes’ ending came at such a price
(said) “I am getting old
no longer can I be that fearless one, so brave and bold”
Bill died lonely, bored and out of touch
Even nothing can kill you if you have it too much

Come what may heaven knows
The dimmest lights are often longest to glow
So I’ll just keep on rollin along
keep on strollin along
I keep a cruise controlling along
come what may
