Just standin' on the shoulder
Of a road I did not know
Turn my guitar case over
I'm gonna let my good side show
We made love on the porches
And the back roads of Mexico
We must of burned out all our torches
In about a week or so

Chorus:
But, I think at last I am free
Holdin' up the down side part of me
Sun's full of yellow
Sky's full of blue
Been on my vacation 'bout a full year or two

Just a high hobo in the breeze
My pocket full of hand
My head's full of nothin'
Boot's full of holes
Holes full of sand
It's gettin' on into the afternoon
The rides are comin' slow
I'd sure like to be in Texas, Boys
I'd settle for El Paso
Chorus:
But, I think at last I'm free
Holdin' up the down side part of me
Sun's full of yellow
Sky's full of blue
Been on my vacation 'bout a full year or two

Oh, what's that yonder comin'
See it comin' on down the road
Big semi comin' my way
Got a trailer full of load
Cab full of driver
Window full of breeze
Big sign on the side of it sayin'
"Sorry, sucker, no riders, please."

Chorus:
But, I think at last I'm free
Holdin' up the down side part of me
Sun's full of yellow
Sky's full of blue
Been on my vacation 'bout a full year or two
