F C
Barbed wire fence carvin’ out a hillside
F C
Cuttin’ holes in the midday sun
Am C
Like a post-card framed in a windshield
G
Covered in dust
F C
I love the rhythm of an old grey blacktop
F C
33's just whistlin' by
Am C
Steer the wheel, one handed on a two lane
G
Huggin’ that line
F C
I got the windows down
Am G/D
No one else around, singin'

F C
Ooh - ooh - ooh

Freedom is the miles I'm rollin' on

I hit the brakes for an old New Holland

The breeze smells like a summertime hay field's

Just been cut

Way out of town, singin’
