Sherry was a waitress at the only joint in town She had a reputation as a girl who'd been around Down Main Street after midnight with a brand new pack of ciggs A fresh one hangin' from her lips and a beer between her legs She'd ride down to the river and meet with all her friends The road goes on forever and the party never endsSonny was a loner, he was older than the rest He was going into the navy but he couldn't pass the test So he hung around town, he sold a little pot The law caught wind of Sonny and one day he got caught But he is back in business when they set him free again The road goes on forever and the party never endsSonny's playin' 8-ball at the joint where Sherry works When some drunken outta towner put his hand up Sherry's skirt Sonny took his pool cue laid the drunk out on the floor Stuffed a dollar in her tip jar and walked on out the door She's runnin' right behind him reachin' for his hand The road goes on forever and the party never endsThey jumped into his pickup Sonny jammed her down in gear Sonny looked at Sherry and said let's get on outta here The stars were high above them and the moon was in the East The sun was settin' on them when they reached Miami Beach They got a motel by the water and a quart of Bombay gin The road goes on forever and the party never endsThey soon ran out of money but Sonny knew a man Who knew some Cuban refugees that dealt in contraband Sonny met the Cubans in a house just off the route With a briefcase full of money and a pistol in his boot The cards were on the table when the law came bustin' in The road goes on forever and the party never endsThe Cubans grabbed the goodies and Sonny grabbed the Jack He broke a bathroom window and climbed on out the back Sherry drove the pickup through the alley on the side Where a lawman tackled Sonny and was reading him his rights She stepped into the alley with a single shot 410 The road goes on forever and the party never endsThey left the lawman lyin' and they made their getaway They got back to the motel just before the break of day Sonny gave her all the money and he blew her a little kiss If they ask you how this happened say I forced you into this She watched him as his taillights disappeared around the bend The road goes on forever and the party never endsIt's Main Street after midnight like it was before 21 months later at the local grocery store Sherry buys a paper and a cold 6-pack of beer The headlines read that Sonny is goin' to the chair She pulls back onto Main Street in her new Mercedes Benz The road goes on forever and the party never endsThe road goes on forever The road goes on forever
