lyrics

Out on the road in the wind and snow
I'm just a road dog Canadian boy
And I found myself alone out at the south end of a bottle
In the north end of Champagne, Illinois
It's the crack of dawn I got my radio on
And I pull her off the old interstate
Cause the backroad's calling
I'm in no rush at all
I'm just traveling across the US of A

I'm going out to California
But not because I wanted to
But my woman found some work out on the Sunset Strip
It was an offer that she couldn't refuse
So I'm making my way to Californ I A
To the ocean and the warm sunshine
Now I'm a little bitty fish in a pond of barracudas
And I think I'm gonna lose my mind

St. Lou, Mizzou is coming into my view
I seen some travelers who needed a ride
I took them trippy little hippies right across the Mississippi
And they hopped out on the other side
I got a bag to go and now I'm back on the road
With my mind's eye opened wide
A little something for the boredom of the plains of Oklahoma
Gotta get to Amarillo tonight

I'm going out to California
But not because I wanted to
But my woman found some work out on the Sunset Strip
It was an offer that she couldn't refuse
So I'm making my way to Californ I A
To the ocean and the warm sunshine
Now I'm a little bitty fish in a pond of barracudas
And I think I'm gonna lose my mind

Well I'm a bit of a mess when I head out of Texas
And I'm rolling into New Mexico
Cause I pulled an all nighter with the truckers and the bikers
And I slept out by the side of the road
I still taste the Wild Turkey when I burn through Albuquerque
With the pedal nailed down to the floor
All night through Arizona just to get to California
And to find out that my woman isn't mine anymore
