I just wanna be on the road with you
I don't think that there's a day we can't
make it through
I can't wait to shake these hometown blues
living in a van and we're miles from home
we get broken down on the side of the road
I don't care we got everything we need
far away from that Texas town
is good enough for me
I just wanna be on the road with you
I don't think that there's a day we can't
make it through
I can't wait to shake these hometown blues
When winter's on the way and we're running outta money
and it won't be long before we're cold and hungry
it don't matter we've been there before
long as we ain't waiting round here no more
I just wanna be on the road with you
I don't think that there's a day we can't
make it through
I can't wait to shake these hometown blues
Itchy feet and a weary mind
and it's just gonna take a little bit more time
before we get our money saved and we get gone
leave this place behind and move along
I just wanna be on the road with you
I don't think that there's a day we can't
make it through
I can't wait to shake these hometown blues
Just like a couple of rolling Stones
with empty pockets but wealthy souls
and plenty good reasons to stay but more to leave
our home town's everywhere I do believe
