Lovin’ the Open Road

Cruisin’

By Mark Stigers Published 5 months ago • 1 min read

Lovin’ the Open Road

Cruising the highway

I’m a techno fiend

You can feel the power

Of my mean machine

A motor carriage

Takes me away

From all the stress

Of a lousy day

That’s how I roll

It relieves my weary soul

At my finger tips

a charging beast

My need for speed

Will never cease

We chew up the street

I’m coming through

I can’t think of anything

That I would rather do

That’s how I roll

It relieves my weary soul

Driving is so fun

It makes me feel fine

I go anywhere

At any time

The lights are green

And the sky is blue

Scream down the road

Is what I want to do

That’s how I roll

It relieves my weary soul
