| Standing by the side of the big old highway
|
| Watching the cars rolling by
|
| There’s sure to be a driver who’ll be going my way
|
| And maybe I’ll just catch his eye
|
| And that’s all I’ve got and that’s all I’ve ever needed
|
| Yesterday rollin' behind me
|
| And a better day waiting to find me
|
| Sitting in the back of a big Cadillac
|
| That’s winding its way through the morning sun
|
| Get to the East Coast and a job on the tugboats
|
| They don’t pay much but it’s sure to be fun
|
| And that’s all I’ve got
|
| And that’s all I’ve ever needed
|
| The old town rollin' behind me
|
| And another town waitin' to find me
|
| Bedford Indiana
|
| Headed for Savannah and the summertime
|
| Going through Loredo on the way to San Diego
|
| Got a woman in mind
|
| She’s a friend of mine and I’m half inclined to stay there
|
| Gonna have to write me a long letter home
|
| And tell them the places I’ve been
|
| Tell them it’ll be better if they’d just forget me
|
| Till I’ve seen all the things I haven’t seen
|
| 'Cause all I’ve got is all I’ve ever needed
|
| Yesterday rollin' behind me and another day waitin' to find me |
