I was looking for a place to hang my hat

And a place to lay me down my heavy load

I found it in the woods, in the cabin on the hill

Down at the end of the road

We were looking for a place to raise a child

'Cause she'd soon be giving birth, the one that showed

And we found it in the woods, in the cabin on the hill

Down at the end of the road

Down at the end of the road

Down at the end of an old country road

We found what we needed for the family we would raise

Down at the end of the road

A girl was born, December 23rd

Just one day short of Christmas Eve

And through the years we tried to move many different times

But we landed on the place we couldn't leave

So we prayed to God that we might have a son

And he was born December '92

And we keep lookin' for a place to move away, move away

But leavin' was a thing we couldn't do

20 years flew by like 20 days

And the blessings grew from the initial seed we'd sown

Our kids will soon be leavin' now

They'll leave us here behind

Down at the end of the road

Down at the end of the road

Down at the end of an old country road

We found what we needed for the family we would raise

Down at the end of the road
