Jude Cole - Open Road Lyrics

Black road, Georgia trees

Midnight moon, just stay with me

Like a lighthouse in the sky

Let these eighteen wheels fly

I woke up this morning in a Motel Five

Brokenhearted, I'm gonna drive

Through the night

Down the open road

I asked her where we stood

She said, "Johnny, this ain't no good

You made the highway your home

I'm just tired of livin' alone"

So you go your way and I'll go mine

And maybe one day

You'll find what you're looking for

Down the open road, down the open road

I've been down this road many a time

And Lord, I've tried to find

Some peace of heart, some peace of mind

But this road just winds, winds

There's a crazy lady with a high-heeled shoes

She could take away my homesick blues

Lately I feel a little crazy too

Yes I do, man, yes I do

Got a double sleeper and hell on wheels

Come on sweet thing, show me how love feels

Down the open road, down the open road

Down the open road

Ooh, somewhere down the open road

She don't break down, she don't run cold

Sees heart and soul like a pot of gold

Sees the white lines, when I'm driving blind

A hundred more miles and she's right on time

Right on time, she's right on time

Right on time, down the open road

Right on time
