America - A Road Song

 

We?re still in Wisconsin
As far as I know
Today was Green Bay and
Tomorrow Chicago
Wish I was lying
But there isn?t much to report
My phone is dying
So I got to keep it short

I just wanted to say, hey
I?ve been writing you a road song
It?s a cliché but hey
That doesn?t make it so wrong
And in between the stops at the Cracker Barrel
And funny movies with Will Farrell
I need someway to occupy my time
So I?m writing you a road song
I sure hope you don?t mind

I bought you a light blue
T-shirt last night
From some band I couldn?t stand but
There logo was all right
Some kid threw a bottle on stage
He had an arm like a pro
I know it?s getting late
I guess I should let you go

But did I happen to say hey
I?ve been writing you a road song
Don?t run away cause hey
I promise it won?t be too long
And I know it?s not what you?d call necessary
And I know that I?m no Steve Perry
Even if you roll your eyes and groan
I?m still writing you a road song
That you can call your own
