Michael Stanley - American Road Lyrics

The police report spoke of whiskey and pills
A good time to head for the hills
So with a cocktail waitress from over the line
He packed up and made a little time
Headlights cut through the Cumberland Gap
Rain come down like a heart attack
She said, too late now we can't turn back so
Turn up the radio...

(chorus)
He said, Hang on lover, hang on here we go
Oh jump back Kerouac
He's going after what he's owed
'Cause his old man told him
It ain't what but who you know
Just one more dreamer out
on the American Road...

Yeah those green and white signs
Can make you blind
And the highway it plays tricks with your mind
Kansas, Nebraska, all the same
Through a couple of more
Can't remember the names
Colorado looking mighty good
Roll through Vegas into Hollywood
See the bright lights hear the silver screams
Of the ways and means...

(chorus)
He said, Hang on lover, hang on here we go
Oh jump back Kerouac
He's going after what he's owed
Like his old man told him
It ain't what but who you know
Ah one more pilgrim out on the American Road...

(chorus)
He said, Hang on lover, hang on here we go
Oh jump back Kerouac
He's going after what he's owed
'Cause his old man told him
It ain't what but who you know
One more dreamer out on the American Road...

(chorus)
He said, Hang on lover, hang on here we go
Oh jump back Kerouac
He's going after what he's owed
Like his old man told him
It ain't what but who you know
Just one more story out on the American Road...

Out on the American Road...
