[Verse 1]
I feel at home on those highways, when an empty bottle is my ashtray and the only people I have to see are at gas stations when I pay
Never stayed long enough to fall in love or catch a buzz
I get a pack of buds and hit the gas, pop the clutch and just go
Headed where the settin’ sun meets the road, that’s me
Got a case full of beer in the backseat, white shirt and some worn out black jeans
Little bit of water in the canteen, letter from my father and a photo of my family
I’m not running from nothing
I’m just lookin’ for something
And I know when I find my fortune, roaming free like wild horses

[Chorus]
Got a jar full of whiskey
I got bottles on the way
Caught a flight to California but Alberta’s in my veins
And my ma and pa still miss me but there’s dreams I gotta chase Sticks and stones will break my bones, well, what’s a hero without pain, hey

[Bridge]
(Huh, huh)
(Huh, huh)
(Huh, huh)

[Verse 2]
Funny how the city gave birth to a cowboy
Funny how the city doesn’t even say bye when you leave
Ride till the sky is the kind that you need
Find what is hiding behind all the trees, knee high in weeds
That’s where you’ll find it, that’s what you’ve looked for, that is your assignment
Drive till your eyes can’t hold up your eyelids
Follow the stars cause they’re shining to guide you
[Verse 3]
I’ve been on road trips
I don’t wanna look at ‘em yet
What’s important is the places you’ll go
All that matters is the places you’re at
It’s been a long trip and I will never look back
Try to tell me what my course is, livin’ my life like wild horses

[Chorus]
Got a jar full of whiskey
I got bottles on the way
Caught a flight to California but Alberta’s in my veins
And my ma and pa still miss me but there’s dreams I gotta chase Sticks and stones will break my bones, well, what’s a hero without pain, hey
Got a jar full of whiskey
I got bottles on the way
Caught a flight to California but Alberta’s in my veins
And my ma and pa still miss me but there’s dreams I gotta chase Sticks and stones will break my bones, well, what’s a hero without pain, hey
