Rooted Roar on the Highway

Lyrics

Verse 1 Woke up with the sunrise burning through the blinds Got a tank full of petrol and a restless mind Old boots by the doorway, six-string in the back Ain’t looking for a reason, I’m just following the track Pre-Chorus There’s a road calling my name And I can’t stand still today Chorus So I’m riding down that highway With the wind against my face Got a little bit of freedom And a whole lot of space If tomorrow wants to find me It can catch me if it can I was born with dust on my boots And a wild heart in my hands Verse 2 Stopped off at a roadhouse where the old men know my name They poured another coffee and we talked about the rain There’s a girl out in the distance with a smile like summer heat She said, “You look like trouble,” I said, “Trouble looks good on me” Pre-Chorus She laughed and shook her head Then climbed into my truck instead Chorus So we’re riding down that highway With the wind against our face Got a little bit of freedom And a whole lot of space If tomorrow wants to find us It can catch us if it can We were born with dust on our boots And a wild heart in our hands Bridge When the night comes falling And the stars light up the sky We’ll pull over by the river Let the world just pass us by No promises forever No need to understand Just two souls and an open road And a fire in the sand Final Chorus We’re riding down that highway With the moon above our heads Leaving all our worries Like footprints in the dust behind us If tomorrow wants to find us It can catch us if it can We were born with dust on our boots And a wild heart in our hands Outro Yeah, the road keeps rolling And we ain’t turning back Two hearts, one old guitar And a highway painted black
