Chrome shining underneath the lights Eighteen wheels cutting through the night Radio loud with the windows down Burning through another nowhere town White lines rolling like a river of steel This old highway’s the only thing that feels real Engine screaming like a heart on fire Living fast running hard never getting tired Another state line coming into view Just me, this rig, and the midnight blue We were born to ride Born to chase the wind Out on the open road again No looking back No slowing down Just thunder rolling through these towns With a full tank dream and a rebel soul These highway lights are all I know Yeah the only life I’ve ever known Is running wild out on the open road Truck stop coffee and a restless heart Every mile feels like a brand new start Neon signs and rain soaked roads Carrying heavy dreams in heavy loads There’s freedom humming in these tires Steel guitars and burning wires Some folks stay where they belong But out here’s where my heart stays strong Another sunrise breaking gold Another story this highway told We were born to ride Born to chase the wind Out on the open road again No looking back No slowing down Just thunder rolling through these towns With a full tank dream and a rebel soul These highway lights are all I know Yeah the only life I’ve ever known Is running wild out on the open road And when these old wheels finally stop turning They’ll say he lived his life wide open Every scar every mile every broken chain Was worth the ride through sun and rain Still born to ride Still chasing the wind Out on the open road again These old headlights still burn bright Like a fire cutting through the night With a full tank dream and a soul untamed Still out here riding just the same Yeah the only life I’ve ever known Is running wild out on the open road Eighteen wheels… And a road that never ends
