now i m thinking bout leaving this place i call my roots stepping on down that highway in these boots but i don t wanna be another one of what they want i wanna write the songs i want to and bust my ass to make it where i am from where i began i ve been a wild horse i ve been a fast train i ve put some miles on this hungry soul of mine chasing the night with this gift that i ve been given of a six string telling every story that i write when you keep holding on to this thing for a lifetime play for tips in bars and strangers passing by oh it s taught me everything there is to offer yeah it s brought me up to where i stand tonight now i m thinking bout leaving this place i call my roots stepping on down that highway in these boots but i don t wanna be another one of what they want i wanna write the songs i want to and bust my ass to make it where i am from where i began i ve been a fighter and i ll take the last punch for the things that i believe are what is right and if you want it you gotta work hard just to get it enough to spark a fire in your eyes now i m thinking bout leaving this place i call my roots stepping on down that highway in these boots but i don t wanna be another one of what they want i wanna write the songs i want to and bust my ass to make it where i am from where i began well here s to the long drives and the places seen a million different faces from the bars and the basements to the nightclubs and the stadiums all the chances that we re taking and the memories that we re making for a dream that you ve gone chasing now i m thinking bout leaving this place i call my roots stepping on down that highway in these boots but i don t wanna be another one of what they want i wanna write the songs i want to and bust my ass to make it where i am yeah i m gon na bust my ass to make it where i am and hell it just might shape me up a better man from where i began
