lyrics

From the driveway
Her gaze afar
To the highway
Beneath the Morning Star

She folds the paper
And turns the key
And baby you were made to roam

A weary traveller
A fume-lit dream
The lonely highway
The open sea

To gain your freedom
You take some liberties
But baby you were made to roam

The wallet empties
As the spirit climbs
New towns and people
But only fives and dimes

She’s going to make to make it
She’s found her home
For baby you were made to roam
