HUNDRED MILES OF ROAD

Well it was late September in an east coast town

Summertime gone, I was feeling down

I was looking for something new

Loaded up my Chevy with guitar and bags

Not knowing where to go I just hit that gas

I went searchin’ for something to do

 

Eyes on the road and hands on the wheel

Feel the tire rolling beneath my heel

And a Hundred Miles of Road to call my own

 

Stopped into a roadside place I found

I saw her pushing plates and servin’ rounds

I said “Baby, what’s your name?”

Later that night when the sun went down

I walked her back home to a trailer town

Then I kissed her, and she did the same

 

Eyes on the road and hands on the wheel

Feel the tire rolling beneath my heel

And a Hundred Miles of Road to call my own

Hundred Miles of Road to call my home

 

Repeat Chorus

 

Solo

 

Spent that night staring out her room

Saw the open road and the autumn moon

And I left her with just a kiss

Don’t know where I’m going

Only know what’s gone

But now I’m on the road

And I’m feeling strong

So remember, it goes like this

 

Repeat Chorus and End
