Living on the Open Road Songtext
von Delaney & Bonnie

Here we are in a road on a highway
Looking for a place to get a bite
Radiator′s busted running low on gas
Got to be in Birmingham tonite
Well I have my hands full keeping right on down
Think it's gonna be alright
Everybody′s worried cause we gotta pull a load
For we're living oh lord out on the open road


Left my home folks down in Mississippi
Told em I was gonna be a star
Momma said son you'll be alright
Makes no matter where you are
So I packed everything I had to my name
Put in in the back of my car
And ever since then I been pulling a load
Cause I′m living out on the open road

Oh no I wanna go home
Woah no wanna go home

I made a long distance call the other day
Next thing to being home
You should have heard what the phone people had to say
When I told them all I had was just a song
I asked the old jailer man how long I was in for
He said son it won′t be long
Just another day for a dollar that you owe
Cause you're living oh no out on the open road

Woah no I wanna go home
Oh no I wanna go home
Woah no I wanna go home
Oh no I wanna go home
