Down The Road I Go lyrics

(Travis Tritt/Bob DiPiero/Dennis Robbins)

Let me tell you baby
If you want to pin me down
Better get your hammer, girl
And nail me to the ground
`Cause you won`t find no grass stains
On the bottom of my feet
The only home I`ve ever known
Is out there on the street

You call me insane
Honey, that`s my middle name
And I don`t care which way the wind will blow
`Cause I don`t know
So down the road I go

You see I tried to settle down
Not too long ago
You can lock my body up
But you can`t calm my soul
I don`t want to hurt you
Or put you on a shelf
But my daddy told me all my life
You`ve got to be yourself

You call me insane
Honey, that`s my middle name
And I don`t care which way the wind will blow
`Cause I don`t know so down the road I go

I`m sure there`s lots of guys out there
Who`ve learned to tow the line
Complared to them my life may look a wreck
But girl, you`ve been to college
So you should know by now
And if you can`t understand me
What the hell did you expect

I`m giving you fair warning
I`m gonna say goodbye
And when I`m walkin` out the door
Don`t want to hear you cry
There`s so much highway out there
That I ain`t never seen
And all I need is cigarettes, guitars, and gasoline

You call me insane
Honey, that`s my middle name
And I don`t care which way the wind will blow
`Cause I don`t know
So honey, down the road I go
Down the road I go
I`ll see you around
`Cause I`m leaving town
Yeah, yeah, yeahhh
