Where the air is clear, and the road is straight

All the choices have been made

I'll keep rollin' right along

Leaning on a travelin' song

Seeing things that just ain't' there

Five hours away from anywhere

Highway 80 way out west

Can't afford to get no rest

Bolt of lightning up on high

Rips the darkness from the sky

Behind the wheel where I belong

Leaning on a travelin' song

I can't recall the past ten miles

Standing still feels like I'm flyin'

That old moon is shining bright

Keep her steady, lord keep it right

Traverse City to Santa Fe

Sacramento on down to Tampa Bay

Cruising through the early dawn

Leaning on a travelin' song

I'm leaning on a travelin' song

Listening to a highway prayer

Gonna be a long time gone

If I ever make it there

Where the air is clear and the road is straight

All the choices have been made

I'll keep rollin' right along

Leaning on a travelin' song

I'll keep rollin' right along

Leaning on a travelin' song
