Song Lyrics:
Hittin' the Road
v1 - Jack:
I'm packing my bags, grabbing my hat. I'm hitting the road.
I'm leaving behind my second thoughts. I'm dropping the load.
Got my guitar. I've got my songs. Ready to roll.
I'm Hitting the Road!
v2 - Rich:
Some say think twice, better get back, wouldn't be right.
Just dream a dream but don't step out, stay out of sight.
I'm telling you now I'm making my way, shining a light.
I'm Hitting the Road!
[bridge]
Jack & Rich:
Comes a time to grab the wheel,
turn the key, make it start.
My timing's set, this moment's real.
A new song straight from my heart!
[Instrumental]
v3 - Rich:
I'm taking a chance, spinning the wheel, throwing the dice.
I'm telling a tale, prayin' a prayer, makin' it nice.
I'm gettin' in tune, thinking it once, singing it twice.
I'm hittin' the road!
[bridge] – Jack & Rich
v4 - Jack:
I'm gearing it up, rarin' to go, reading the signs.
No stick in the mud, no rock in the road gonna break my spine.
I'm takin' the highway, doing it my way, draggin' the line.
I'm hittin' the road! .... (Modulation to Key of E)
v5 - Rich:
I'm chasing rainbows, following dreams, I'm going for broke
Some rain might fall, four winds may blow, that ain't no joke
Oh, can't you see, I gotta be free, that's why for me
I'm hitting the road!
