The fire, the wine, the bed and you In this crimson light I find the truth And the truth is like a punch or two It hits you hard it knocks you through So I... get on the road and ride to you I... get on the road and ride to you Kiss like a fight that neither wins One tender payment for our sins You are the drug that I can't quit Your perfect chaos is a perfect fit So I... get on the road and ride to you I... get on the road and ride to you From broken farm to broken farm The engine noise like an alarm It breathes a thunder in my soul Its starts this race through the dustbowl So I... get on the road and ride to you I... get on the road and ride to you The wheel it settles in my hand This is the measure of this man I point the car at north at you The route has scarred the country through So I... get on the road and ride to you I... get on the road and ride to you I... get on the road and ride to you I... get on the road and ride to you
