Rolling By |
| It’s a busted old town |
| On the plains of West Texas |
| The drugstore’s closed down |
| The river’s run dry |
| The semis roll through |
| Just like stainless steel stallions |
| Goin' hard |
| Goin' fast |
| Goin' wild |
| Rollin' hard |
| Rollin' fast |
| Rollin' by |
| The mission still stands |
| At the edge of the plateau |
| And a stone marks the graves |
| Where the old cowboys lie |
| Asleep in a time |
| In a town just a young man |
| Goin' hard |
| Goin' fast |
| Goin' wild |
| Rollin' hard |
| Rollin' fast |
| Rollin' by |
| The drive-in don’t play |
| No Friday night picture |
| With no big silver screen |
| To light up the sky |
| And gone are the days |
| Of post-wartime lovers |
| Goin' hard |
| Goin' fast |
| Goin' wild |
| Rollin' hard |
| Rollin' fast |
| Rollin' by |
| And me I stand here |
| At the last filling station |
| While the wind moans a dirge |
| To a coyote’s cry |
| And I’m back in my car |
| And I’m out on the highway |
| Goin' hard |
| Goin' fast |
| Goin' wild |
