  			D 	                                      
I?m off on another West Texas run, it?s fifty miles to the  
G    D     A 
next town, Son 
D                            G              D               
I?ve got some beer iced down in the back and I don?t mind  
G            A 
if I have me one 
Cruising down this two-lane road with one arm stuck out in the sun 
There?s horses underneath my hood and I think I just might let ?em run 
 
G                D         G        D 
All the way to Amarillo or maybe Abilene 
G                  D                   A 
Or maybe down some back road to some town I?ve never seen  
What keeps these wheels in motion is what keeps me alive 
You know everything?s gonna be alright 
As long as I?ve got this drive 
 
Now I?ve been through some changes, friend, I?ve been half way to Hell and back again 
But at least I do things my own way and that?s all that matters in the end 
And whether I wind up rich or poor just doesn?t matter anymore 
I?m pulling out all the stops, gonna shove that pedal right through the floor 
 
Chorus 
 
Now I?ve got a girl with long, blonde hair, she?s the answer to my prayers 
She understands this life I lead and I know she?d follow me anywhere 
And I?m gonna take her with me, Lord, I swear 
 
Chorus 
 
Repeat Chorus
