Fields of wheat and rows of cotton 

double wide on the side of dirt road forgotten 

Summer heat and winter floods 

Well good luck if you ever get stuck in that Memphis mud 

But we can go somewhere, baby we can get there fast 

East to Carolina or ride the highway west 

All it takes to be free is this old army jeep 

And the will to leave it in the past  

Burning them tanks of gas   

Pilot Station it’s 3 am 

It’s just us us and a Peterbilt truck at the pump again 

Air is cool and the night is dead 

And we’re as close to where we’re going as we’ll ever get 

But we can go somewhere, maybe we can get there fast 

East to Carolina or ride the highway west 

All it takes to be free is this old army jeep 

And the will to leave it in the past  

Burning them tanks of gas     

I heard they used to follow stars 

But out here in the dark 

All we got are tail lights  

to take us through the night 

But we can go somewhere, baby we can get there fast 

East to Carolina or ride the highway west 

All it takes to be free is this old army jeep 

And the will to leave it in the past  

Load up and get out fast 

Burning them tanks of gas 

We gotta let em burn 

Come on let’s leave it on the road tonight 

It’s just you and I and the time is right 

Come on let’s leave it on the road tonight 

It’s just you and I and the time is right
