There's a long stretch of highway been calling out my name
You know I've got to keep these big wheels rollin'
I've gots to fan the flame
Been on the road since I was young moving at 110
'Cause you don't know where you're going 'til you know where you been
And I done been around the world I ain't afraid of dying
I keep my feets on the ground and my eyes on the horizon
Oh, gotta keep on working
Just trying to be a star
And y'all know where I come from because I done told y'all from the start
And I'm for them lost souls the ones who don't fit in
I'm for that old time country
I'm for the blue collar man
But I ain't much on radio tunes, I like smoke stack lightnin'
I keep my feets on the ground and my eyes on the horizon
Where I'm gonna go the good Lord only knows
I keep drifting around where the wind may blow
I was born to get heavy
Born to get loud
I was born to keep rollin' you know I can't slow down
Oh, gotta keep on movin'
Chasing down a dream
You know I've come a mighty long way for a ol' country boy like me
I'm a sinner, an old mule skinner
A singer of sad ol' songs
I've done left 'em in a trail of tears
From all the things I've done wrong
But I got enough to back it up so believe me I ain't lying
I keep my feets on the ground and my eyes on the horizon
(Play it for us Florida band, baby)
(shoo, shoo, shoo)
(shoo, shoo, shoo)
(shoo, shoo, shoo)
(shoo, shoo, shoo)
Maybe one day I'll find me a piece of shade
But you know that won't be too long 'til they lay me in the grave
So don't tell me bout the good times or the things I've been missing
I ain't much on small talk
I ain't one for reminiscing
And I'd really love to stick around but I'm too busy grindin'
I keep my feets on the ground and my eyes on the horizon, hey
