Down The Road I Go

Let me tell you baby

If you want to pin me down

Better get your hammer, girl

And nail me to the ground

'Cause you won't find no grass stains

On the bottom of my feet

The only home I've ever known

Is out there on the street

You call me insane

Honey, that's my middle name

And I don't care which way the wind will blow

'Cause I don't know

So down the road I go

You see I tried to settle down

Not too long ago

You can lock my body up

But you can't calm my soul

I don't want to hurt you

Or put you on a shelf

But my daddy told me all my life

You've got to be yourself

You call me insane

Honey, that's my middle name

And I don't care which way the wind will blow

'Cause I don't know so down the road I go

I'm sure there's lots of guys out there

Who've learned to tow the line

Compared to them my life may look a wreck

But girl, you've been to college

So you should know by now

And if you can't understand me

What the hell did you expect

I'm giving you fair warning

I'm gonna say goodbye

And when I'm walkin' out the door

Don't want to hear you cry

There's so much highway out there

That I ain't never seen

And all I need is cigarettes, guitars, and gasoline

You call me insane

Honey, that's my middle name

And I don't care which way the wind will blow

'Cause I don't know

So honey, down the road I go

Down the road I go

I'll see you around

'Cause I'm leaving town

Yeah, yeah, yeah
