Burning Down the Road

I'm blowing out of this southern town

For the setting sun is where I'm bound

I filled her up with eighty nine

And I'm coming down on the state line

I've never been this far

From the place where I was born

I'm tearing off my rearview mirror

Won't look back till tomorrow morn

I'm burning, burning, burning, burning

Burning down the road

I'm burning, burning, burning, burning

Burning down the road

One headlight on that long white line

In the darkness shines a Pilot sign

Passed the point of no return

Throttle up and smell it burn

I'm burning, burning, burning, burning

Burning down the road

I'm burning, burning, burning, burning

Burning down the road

I'm burning, burning, burning, burning

Burning down the road

I'm burning, burning, burning, burning

Burning down the road
