Livin' on the Road Lyrics

Burning up the blacktop across the vast prairie

Skipping all the truck stops in search of wild country

Go and snatch a road map before we get lost

Gotta get back on track these roads get me crisscrossed

Glowing gold beside back roads, beauty's beyond boundless

Rolling hills, give me thrills, lead me to the mountains

The summer sun heat beats rising from the asphalt

Cars go tearing through the streets until they hit the road salt

When the weather switches and the snow begins to blow

Keep between the ditches or you'll run it off the road

Midnight run to morning sun, when you get the call

Rain to sleet to snow so deep, driving through it all

Underpass to overpass

Give it gas, get going fast

Keep the pace don't hit the brakes

Lead the chase, give what it takes

Headlights shine on dark nights

Reflect lines and road signs

Ones that show where to go

But anywhere is home when you're livin' on the road

Semi trucks get packed up and ride the rough terrain

Hay bales get stacked up before the autumn rain

Loaded up and long hauling with the heavy freight

Smarten up, semi truck, and keep it under the weight

Oilers fill the trailers from the tankers in the north

Flames the engine fires, spins the tires back and forth

Northern goods travel down Highway 63

Passing by all the small towns and picking up some speed

Cruising on the QE2 from the dirty city

Hey Cowtown we're coming through but we'll be gone here quickly

Ride like a cowboy and enjoy the mountain trail

Get closer to the border and open up the sails

Underpass to overpass

Give it gas, get going fast

Keep the pace don't hit the brakes

Lead the chase, give what it takes

Headlights shine on dark nights

Reflect lines and road signs

Ones that show where to go

But anywhere is home when you're livin' on the road

Livin' on the road

Road

You're livin' on the road

Underpass to overpass

Give it gas, get going fast

Keep the pace don't hit the brakes

Lead the chase, give what it takes

Headlights shine on dark nights

Reflect lines and road signs

Ones that show where to go

But anywhere is home when you're livin' on the road
