Open Road

Black road, Georgia trees Midnight moon, just stay with me Like a lighthouse in the sky Let these eighteen wheels fly Woke up this morning in a Motel Five The day is dawning, I'm gonna drive Through the night Down that open road I asked her where we stood She said, "Baby, this ain't no good" You made the highway your home And I'm just tired of livin' alone So you go your way and I'll go mine And maybe someday you'll find What you're looking for Down that open road Well, I've been down this road many times And Lord, I've tried to find Some peace of heart, some piece of mind But this road just winds and winds There's a crazy lady with high-heeled shoes She could take away my homesick blues Lately, I feel a little crazy too Yes I do, ma'am, yes I do Got a double sleeper, I'm hell on wheels So come on sweet thing, show me how your love feels On the open road Down the open road Down the open road Down the open road Down the open road She don't break down, she don't run cold She's my heart and soul, she's my pot of gold She's the white lines when I'm driving blind A hundred more miles and she's right on time Right on time Right on time Right on time
