I'm tired of working every day for a dollar

About to choke on my own blue collar

This ain't gonna last

Misled by the grand illusion

I've come to this conclusion

I can't make a move too fast

It was written in the sky today

By the morning sun it sure looks like a good day to run



Chorus:

Wide open down a two-lane highway

It's about time that some things went my way

Throwing troubles out to the wind and

I'm praying that they never catch up again

I'm gonna say my worrying days are done

And this looks like a good day to run



My baby's been working as a cashier

She didn't get a vacation this past year

Now it won't be long

We don't need no destination

Just a tank of gas and a good clear station

Playing our favorite song

There're some places that we ain't been

Some things we ain't done

And it sure looks like a good day to run



Chorus
