John Denver — On the Road

[Verse 1] Back in 1958 We drove an old V8 And when it'd gone a hundred thou' We got out and pushed it a mile [Chorus] We didn't know who we were We didn't know what we did We were just on the road [Verse 2] Headin' down from Canada on a gravel road a mile from Montana Then my daddy read a sign and took us in the wrong direction I asked my daddy where are we goin', he said we'll just follow our nose So I looked out the window and dreamed I was a cowboy [Chorus] We didn't know who we were We didn't know what we did We were just on the road [Verse 3] I met a girl in a truck café Fell in love almost right away Then the Mercury was ready to go And I had to leave her [Bridge] Shoo-be-doo-be-doo-sh-doo Shoo-be-doo-be-doo-sh-doo-sh-doo "Go home," said the man in the moon, "go home" "Go home," said the man in the moon, "go home" "Because it's gettin' sorta late And I'll soon turn out my light Go home," said the man in the moon, "go home" [Chorus] We didn't know who we were We didn't know what we did We were just on the road We didn't know who we were We didn't know what we did We were just a ridin' on We were just a ridin' on the road
