Monday morning, six AM

Gonna be a hot one again

Put some coffee in my cup

Got my Chevy and I saddled up

And I roll, roll, roll, roll

Got another hundred miles to go

And I roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll

I can taste your kisses, see your face

And the faster I go the longer it takes

Well, this lonely heart is a heavy load

And it's slowing me down and there

Ain't no short way home

Make a stop for some gasoline

Ain't got time to wash the windows clean

Burning highway, burning tires

Burning oil, and burning desire

And I roll, roll, roll, roll

Got another hundred miles to go

And I roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll

I can taste your kisses, see your face

And the faster I go the longer it takes

Well, this lonely heart is a heavy load

And it's slowing me down and there

Ain't no short way home

(Instrumental Bridge)

And I roll, roll, roll, roll

Got another hundred miles to go

And I roll, roll, roll, roll, roll, roll

I can taste your kisses, see your face

And the faster I go the longer it takes

Well, this lonely heart is a heavy load

And it's slowing me down and there

Ain't no short way home

I can taste your kisses, see your face

And the faster I go the longer it takes

Well, this lonely heart is a heavy load

And it's slowing me down and there

Ain't no short way

Taste your kisses, see your face

And the faster I go the longer it takes

Well, this lonely heart is a heavy load

And it's slowing me down and there

Ain't no short way

(fade)
