Took a look down a westbound road..
Right away I made my choice...
Headed out to my big twowheeler..
I was tired of my own voice...
Took a bead on the northern plains..
and just rolled that power on...

Twelve hours out of Mackinaw City..
stopped in a bar to have a brew...
Met a girl and we had a few drinks and I..
told her what I'd decided to do...
She looked out the window
a long long moment..
then she looked into my eyes...
She didn't have to say a thing...
I knew what she was thinkin'...

Roll... roll me away..
Won't you roll me away tonight...
I too am lost..
I feel double crossed..
and I'm sick of what's wrong
and what's right~...
We never even said a word
We just walked out and got on that bike...
And we rolled~...
And we rolled clean out of sight...

We rolled across the high plains...
Deep into the mountains...
Felt so good to me...
Fin'lly feelin' free...

Somewhere along a high road...
The air began to turn cold...
She said she missed her home...
I headed on alone... Ohh~...

Stood alone on a mountain top..
starin' out at the Great Divide...
I could go east, I could go west..
it was all up to me to decide...
Just then I saw a young hawk flyin'
and my soul began to rise...
And pretty soon...
My heart was singin'...

Roll... roll me away
I'm gonna roll me away tonight
Gotta keep rollin, gotta keep ridin'
keep searchin' till I find what's right
And as the sunset faded
I spoke to the faintest first starlight...

And I said next time...
Next time...
We'll get it right...
