The Open Road

(álbum: The Open Road - 2010)

Shrunken head and Mardi Gras beads
Hanging on a rearview mirror that bleeds
Keeping her eyes on the open road
No telling where that son-a bitch goes

Got her doors locked doing 75
Don't care to be caught now, dead or alive
Seen enough to kill anyone's soul
Keeping her eyes on the open road
Keeping her eyes on the open road

The open road where the hopeless come
To see if hope still runs
One by one they bring their broke down loads
And leave 'em where the hobo dreams are stowed
Out on the open road
Out on the open road

Midnight falling like a bag of bones
Weighted down now the rest with stones
Bouncing off a river the moon made steel
Cracking off the chrome of a steering wheel

Anything back there is burned and dead
Any love they made any words they said
Nothing to do now but drop it and roll
Into the lights of the open road
Into the lights of the open road

The open road where the hopeless come
To see if hope still runs
One by one they bring their broke down loads
And leave 'em where the hobo dreams are stowed
Out on the open road
Out on the open road

Shrunken head and Mardi Gras beads
Hanging on a rearview mirror on the beach
Keeping their eyes on the open road
No telling where that son-a bitch goes

The open road where the hopeless come
To see if hope still runs
One by one they bring their broke down loads
And leave 'em where the hobo dreams are stowed
Out on the open road
Out on the open road
