Ain't no roots on these cowboy boots
I was born in a high high wind
I was born in a high high wind
I had good job punchin' the clock
I've been blowin' around ever since
I've been blowin' around ever since
I liked the pay but I couldn't stay
I spent four days and a week's pay
Got my top down, got my engine right
I was born in a high high wind
I was born in a high high wind
One night I took a ride
Before I lose my mind
You know I can't wait to hit the interstate
I travel light, rollin' through the night
Put the peddle down and open up the gate
And watched the city limits fading out of sight
Tryin' to figure out how to get away and leave it behind
Making fourteen and a quarter in the union shop
I've been blowin' around ever since
I heard that highway callin' and I had to get away
