One, two, you know what to doI'm turning left on redThere ain't a soul as far as I can seeI'm gonna stretch this tank of gasTill the red slides my horizon to the eastI'm gonna see your eyes and the sight of me to east goOne minute there with youIs worth a thousand hours of pain and strife to get thereThis boat ain't my homeCruising through desert valleys and city squaresI'm a mountaineer all alone, two weeks goneI go toe-to-toe with the road in the way, the faster it's bySome don't like what I'm doingBut they might say that's fine, we'll all be fineLet's head on down the highwayOnly me has to go my wayLeaning on the book of JohnTwo weeks goneTwo weeks goneWell, back to you and how we're trueAnd everything we've been throughHear the motor song where we belongSee the sunrise on the hillside from our sheetsI can see your eyes and the sight of me to east goI go toe-to-toe with the road in the way, the faster it's bySome don't like what I'm doingBut they might say that's fine, we'll all be fineLet's head on down the highwayOnly me has to go my wayLeaning on the book of JohnTwo weeks goneOne minute there with youIs worth a thousand hours of pain and strife to get thereI go toe-to-toe with the road in the way, the faster it's byLet's head on down the highwayOnly me has to go my wayLeading on the book of John till he's goneLet's head on down the highwayOnly me has to go my wayLeading on the book of John till he's goneI've been praying on the book of John till he's goneOnly me has to go my way
