most of my days i ve spend life on the road took backroad highways to meet the simple folk nights ran together in a haze of drink and smoke so i left with the rising sun all alone gooo gooo shake away shake away the old chains in my life got a new got a new love and open eyes break away break away the old ways and live high got a new course for the light made it out west through the deserts and the snow how you found me i reckon someday i ll know you picked me up from the depth i couldn t cope and you showed me a life of love trust and hope gooo gooo  shake away shake away the old chains in my life got a new got a new love and open eyes break away break away the old ways and live high got a new course for the light got a new course for the light got a new course for the light1
