Melanie Safka I will get over (Rock in the road) Lyrics

[Written by Melanie Safka and David Bruen]
[1993]

There's a rock in the road
And a ditch on the side
And a steep hill that must be climbed
It's a big heavy load
And it measures too wide
And a destination
That's hard to find

I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over

There's a stop sign ahead
And it's slippery when wet
And a detour at every turn
There's a narrowing bridge
And a long threatening ridge
And a big-old landslide
That bars return

I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over

There's a wreck on the right
And it's getting on night
And my headlights, they won't turn on
All the brakes have been worn
And the b__per's been torn
And my pride and patience
Are all but gone

I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
I'll make it there
'Till I climb up that mountain
And breathe heaven's air
I will get over
I'll make it there
I will get over .........
