Coast To Coast Lyrics

Coast to coast baby when I go

I'll be out where the four winds blow

Down a dirty old dusty back road

I'm going where the wild roses grow

Ocean to ocean everywhere in between

I've seen this country's great land unfold

It's hard to say just what I've seen

Nashville east to California gold

Valleys and hollers and ditches and vines

Redwoods and maples magnolias and pines

Creeks and lakes and rivers and streams

I got the fuel got the fire got the ways and means

It doesn't matter baby where I go

Places and faces people I don't know

Finest of strangers have treated me kind

As you seek you'll shall find

What makes a man come to be this way

Why does a man have to hit the road

Why must he leave and why can't he stay

What drives a man to get up and go

What makes a highway seem so fine

What makes him wander so aimlessly

The people I left am I on their mind

Is this the price of being free

But I won't sit and shake hands with fear

Nor be ruled by loathsome ties

Thoughts they come sharp and cool and clear

Endless roads and endless skies

So I'm going where the wild roses grow

Down a dirty old dusty back road

I'll be out where the four winds blow

Coast to coast baby when I go
