Give Me the Road

It’s time to go, I’m taking flight
From now on I travel light
I want to break and be remade
I want the truth that I try to evade
Go east or west, up or down
Two ways to live, you swim or you drown
So keep your fists up or get knocked out
Won’t know you’re hit 'till you hear the ten count
'Cause the road is a boxer swinging his right
A heavyweight champion that I’m gonna fight
Toe to toe, eye to eye
I’m gonna grapple with the muscle of life
So give me the road
Give me the road
I want to sing in a country bar
And get laid under a clear sky of stars
No turning back, keep straight ahead
I’ll light my patch with a cigarette
'Cause the road is a matchstick that I’m gonna strike
And hold it up burning into the night
I need adventure, I need a spark
I’m now wasting my life in the dark
So give me the road
Give me the road
