Everybody goin' on the road, take a bridge
across the river wide
Everybody goin' on the road, wide load, ain't
you glad it's on the other side
Of the highway, I went less cozy, ease my burden
You can pick a day for certain and you'll
lighten your load
You can take a lady or a dog if you got one
Everybody goin' on the road, now C-Captain
goin' on the road
Takes a crew to sail to sea
C-Captain on a sailin' ship, now do you wanna
go with me
And he and we'll be the one come Swankin' in
the riggin'
Get your ticket and your shoves off from the shore
Miss a trip on a ship this time, you'll never
go to sea no more
Everybody goin' on the road, take a bridge
across the river wide
Everybody goin' on the road, wide load, ain't
you glad it's on the other side
Of the highway, I went less cozy, ease my burden
You can pick a day for certain, but the certain
you go
You can take a honey or your money these days
Everybody goin' on the road, now my lady
friend's goin' on the road
She takes her dog in my truck, rolls across the land
She's goin' down Santa Fe Way, she'll leave me
a lonely man
Now I take pleasure to see my friends are happy
And I'll be the pappy long as she'll be the maul
I had my pick of the thick this time, best lady
that I ever have saw
Everybody goin' on the road, take a bridge
across the river wide
Everybody goin' on the road, wide load, ain't
you glad it's on the other side
Of the highway, I went less cozy, ease my burden
You can pick a day for certain, but the certain
you go
You can take a heavy-legged Jerry Jeff Walter
with you
Everybody goin' on the road
Now there's this city Fella goin' on the road
Wants to catch a ride in a semi truck
City Fella goin' on the road, you know he might run
Into a little bit of luck with a map of the
back of the countryside
You ride, you catch a good ride, you never get thrown
Take a right, take a left, take a breath of
fresh air
Everybody goin' on the road, you know everybody
goin' on the road
Take a bridge across the river wide
Everybody goin' on the road, wide load, ain't
you glad it's on the other side
Of the highway, I went less cozy, ease my burden
You can pick a day for certain, but the certain
you go
You can take your lady or your dog if you got one
Everybody goin' on the road
