[Intro] Oh, the road is calling, And the wind is on my side! [Verse 1] I've got a coat that's worn and old, A rusty knife, a heart of gold. The morning sun, the evening sky, A thousand roads for me to try. No silver coins, no fancy name, No two days ever quite the same. With dusty boots and head held high, I'll chase the road until I die. [Chorus] The road is calling, I hear it sing, Through the summer rain and the breath of spring. No walls to hold me, no chains to bind, Just an open road and a restless mind. Hey, hey, let the wild wind blow, There's a world out there that I need to know! The road is calling, clear and strong, And I'll keep walking all day long! [Verse 2] I've slept beneath the old oak trees, Woke to the song of the morning breeze. I've shared my bread with a stranger's son, And left before the rising sun. I've seen the mountains turn to gold, Heard a thousand stories told. And every mile I've left behind Has freed another piece of my mind. [Chorus] The road is calling, I hear it sing, Through the summer rain and the breath of spring. No walls to hold me, no chains to bind, Just an open road and a restless mind. Hey, hey, let the wild wind blow, There's a world out there that I need to know! The road is calling, clear and strong, And I'll keep walking all day long! [Bridge] Maybe someday I'll settle down, Trade these boots for a house in town. But not today, the sky is wide, And there's another mile to ride! [Final Chorus] The road is calling, I hear it sing, Through the summer rain and the breath of spring. No walls to hold me, no chains to bind, Just an open road and a restless mind. Hey, hey, let the wild wind blow, There's a world out there that I need to know! The road is calling, clear and strong, And I'll keep walking all day long! [Outro] Oh, the road is calling, And the wind is on my side. One more mile, one more sunrise, With the whole wide world outside!
