lyrics

Driving through stormy weather, I gotta get down
I'm sorry for ties that I'll sever, but I gotta get down
Yes I'm southbound, southbound
Yes I'm southbound and hey I gotta get down

I tried to make it through winter, but my soul was in splinters
Living life with a ragged heart, too many dead ends and no fresh starts
So I'm southbound, yes I'm southbound
Southbound and hey I gotta get down

Going to the end of the road to the the tip of the American soil
Where the land meets the water and the water greets the sun
Now don't we all deserve to have ourselves a little fun?

All along the highway destined for a far away town
I just can't wait any longer
I passed the point where I was growing stronger
And if I stay here, slowly I'll drown
So I'm southbound, southbound
Yes I'm southbound, and hey I gotta get down
