The screen door slams, Mary's dress swaysLike a vision she dances across the porch as the radio playsRoy Orbison singing for the lonelyHey that's me and I want you onlyDon't turn me home againI just can't face myself alone againDon't run back inside, darling you know just what I'm here forSo you're scared and you're thinking that maybe we ain't that young anymoreShow a little faith, there's magic in the nightYou ain't a beauty, but hey you're alrightOh and that's alright with meYou can hide 'neath your covers and study your painMake crosses from your lovers, throw roses in the rainWaste your summer praying in vain for a savior to rise from these streetsWell now I'm no hero, that's understoodAll the redemption I can offer, girl, is beneath this dirty hoodWith a chance to make it good somehowHey what else can we do nowExcept roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hairWell the night's busting open, these two lanes will take us anywhereWe got one last chance to make it realTo trade in these wings on some wheelsClimb in back, heaven's waiting down on the tracksOh oh come take my handRiding out tonight to case the promised landOh oh oh oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder RoadLying out there like a killer in the sunHey I know it's late, we can make it if we runOh oh oh oh Thunder Road, sit tight, take hold, Thunder RoadWell I got this guitar and I learned how to make it talkAnd my car's out back if you're ready to take that long walkFrom your front porch to my front seatThe door's open but the ride it ain't freeAnd I know you're lonely for words that I ain't spokenTonight we'll be free, all the promises will be brokenThere were ghosts in the eyes of all the boys you sent awayThey haunt this dusty beach road in the skeleton frames of burned-out ChevroletsThey scream your name at night in the streetYour graduation gown lies in rags at their feetAnd in the lonely cool before dawnYou hear their engines roaring onBut when you get to the porch they're gone on the wind, so Mary climb inIt's a town full of losers, I'm pulling out of here to win

Ruben Studdard's rich voice and appealing personality have contributed to his enduring career. Since his "American Idol" win, he has released eight albums, including "Soulful" and "I Need an Angel" (via Discogs). His 2012 album, "Letters from Birmingham," was based on his short-lived marriage to Surata Zuri McCants. Studdard told NPR at the time, "I think the most important thing was for me to tell my story in my words, instead of allowing other people to speculate." Many of his albums have gone gold and platinum, and he earned one Grammy nomination in 2003 for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance. He was also in a revival of the Broadway hit "Ain't Misbehavin'," the Tony-winning musical featuring the songs of Fats Waller (via Broadway.com). 2ff7e9595c
