Yohio

(albüm: City Painted Gold - 2016)

All the roads in this town
All lead the same way
If you like trying to make a dollar
Out of digging your own grave

Half burnt cigarettes and old regrets
I know it all so well
It's kinda hard to get ahead
When you're growing up in hell

Well I'm packing my bags
Gonna head down that line
Like those freight trains and airplanes
And diesels rolling by

Just like a hound dog running
Don't know where, but know I'm gonna go
To get that engine chugging
While I set out on the highway humming

Yohio
I'm leaving
For my soul
I'm searching
The open road
I'm leaving here
Tonight

This old town
Ain't got nothing left for me
Except for ninety-nine bad habits
And one liquor store to grieve

Gonna hit that dusty trail
Gonna ride that lonesome road
From the great wide open
To the Gulf of Mexico

From the rugged Red Rock canyons
To the California Pines
Through them rolling Rocky Mountains
Down that Oregon coastline

Gonna climb the highest mountain
Raise a fire into the night
Take a trip out in the desert
While I'm howling at the moonlight

Yohio
I'm leaving
For my soul
I'm searching
The open road
I'm leaving here
Tonight

Well I'm gone
Well I'm gone
I ain't never running home

Like the stars in the sky
I ain't never gonna die

Well I'm packing my bags
Gonna head down that line
Like those freight trains and air planes
And diesels rolling by

Just like a hound dog running
Don; t know where, but know I'm gonna go
To get that engine chugging
While I set out on the highway humming

Yohio
I'm leaving
For my soul
I'm Searching
The open road
I'm leaving here
Tonight
