(Verse 1)
Woke up this mornin’, sun risin' slow,
Got my boots on, time to hit that road,
Tires rollin’ over, that old gravel track,
Got my guitar, baby, ain’t no turnin’ back.
(Chorus)
Oh, the open road, callin’ my name,
Freedom in the wind, I ain't playin’ no game,
With a heart full of sorrow, and a pocket of dreams,
Drive me down that highway, life ain’t what it seems.
(Verse 2)
Miles stretchin' out like my restless soul,
Every town I pass, it takes its toll,
Road signs whisperin’ secrets of the past,
But I keep on movin’, 'cause this life won’t last.
(Chorus)
Oh, the open road, callin’ my name,
Freedom in the wind, I ain't playin’ no game,
With a heart full of sorrow, and a pocket of dreams,
Drive me down that highway, life ain’t what it seems.
(Bridge)
Memories linger, like dust on my dashboard,
Each curve I take, I’m searchin’ for more,
From the city lights to the stars up high,
The open road's where my spirit can fly.
(Verse 3)
So I’ll sing my blues, under wide-open skies,
Let the rhythm of the tires be my lullabies,
With every mile markers, my burdens will fade,
In the heart of the journey, my soul will be made.
(Chorus)
Oh, the open road, callin’ my name,
Freedom in the wind, I ain't playin’ no game,
With a heart full of sorrow, and a pocket of dreams,
Drive me down that highway, life ain’t what it seems.
(Outro)
Yeah, the open road, it’s a friend to me,
In every bump and turn, I find my peace,
So here’s to the journey, wherever it leads,
With my open road blues, I’m finally free.
