[Verse 1]
I rolled in with a tank on E
And a map that lied to me
One duffel bag, one busted charm
Sleep marks cut in my arm
Diner coffee, cold and thin
Mirror showed what I've been
Truck stop ash on my sleeve
Ain't a soul here know my name
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep one eye on the road
One hand on the wheel
If I slow down now
I might have to feel
[Chorus]
I am a lonely traveler
(oh, lonely traveler)
I chase that line out west
(keep rolling, keep rolling)
I am a lonely traveler
(oh, lonely traveler)
With a heart that won't come to rest
(rest, rest)
[Verse 2]
Tire hum on a blacktop prayer
No home back there, no home up there
County line, then another one
Same old dust, same hard sun
She left a note on the dash
Said, "Don't come back too fast"
Now I laugh at the cracks
'Cause they fit me like that
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep one eye on the road
One hand on the wheel
If I slow down now
I might have to feel
[Chorus]
I am a lonely traveler
(oh, lonely traveler)
I chase that line out west
(keep rolling, keep rolling)
I am a lonely traveler
(oh, lonely traveler)
With a heart that won't come to rest
(rest, rest)
[Bridge]
Maybe I was born for dust
For a town that never holds too much
Maybe every goodbye
Was a map to my life
So I pass through, I pass through
With the moon on my windshield blue
If I ever find my place
I hope it looks like truth
[Chorus]
I am a lonely traveler
(oh, lonely traveler)
I chase that line out west
(keep rolling, keep rolling)
I am a lonely traveler
(oh, lonely traveler)
With a heart that won't come to rest
(rest, rest)
