Lyrics

Left my life on the East Coast, caught a plane out west
Left behind the one I loved, chasing what they called the best
Now I'm headed through the southern states, the highway's my home
California wasn't all that much, and I won't miss it when I'm gone

Here I am, rolling along, Alabama on my mind
In an old Volkswagen bus, leaving yesterday behind
Sleeping beneath the midnight sky, with the stars shining above
I don't care where this road may lead, as long as it's closer to your love

I'm cruisin', cruisin' on down the road
Making my way one mile at a time
Cruisin', cruisin' on down the road
Leaving all my worries behind
Come on, let's go cruisin', there's not a cloud in sight
Give me a pair of wings and I'll be flying through the night
Cruisin', cruisin' on down the road
Getting closer to your love

Another day is fading out, and the engine's winding down
There's a thousand miles around the bend and another little town
Tonight I'll park beside the road and watch the stars above
I don't care where tomorrow takes me, if it's closer to your love

Every mile brings back a memory
Every sunrise brings me home
I've spent too long chasing dreams that disappeared
Now I'm following my heart alone

I'm cruisin', cruisin' on down the road
Making my way one mile at a time
Cruisin', cruisin' on down the road
Leaving all my worries behind
Come on, let's go cruisin', there's not a cloud in sight
Give me a pair of wings and I'll be flying through the night
Cruisin', cruisin' on down the road
Getting closer to your love

Just cruisin' on down the road
Cruisin' on down the road
