Intro
Dust rising with the break of dawn
Engine growls before I’m gone
Lonestar stitched across my sleeve
Barbed wire dreams you wouldn’t believe
Verse 1
Four wheels spinning out of Lubbock
Leather jacket and a pocket full of luck
Sun-baked fields rushing past like fire
Tattooed arms gripping worn-out tires
Westbound streak under copper sky
Raised on grit, too proud to cry
Chorus
Thunder on the Lone Star highway
Kicking up the dust and the red clay
Long road, wild soul, burning daylight
Rolling heavy, never looking behind
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, Texas wind keeps calling
Hey yeah, keep on riding
Verse 2
Boots tapping on broken pavement
Shadow chasing freedom’s statement
Black hat pulled low for the sunrise
Steel horse roaring, cutting new ties
Pre-Chorus
Dreams are stitched by the midnight stars
Life’s a gamble in these open bars
Chorus
Thunder on the Lone Star highway
Kicking up the dust and the red clay
Long road, wild soul, burning daylight
Rolling heavy, never looking behind
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, Texas wind keeps calling
Hey yeah, keep on riding
Bridge
Wide open mouth of the canyon waits
Whiskey memories, heavy gates
Rattlesnake grin, boots on the wire
Edge of the state, wheels spitting fire
Chorus
Thunder on the Lone Star highway
Kicking up the dust and the red clay
Long road, wild soul, burning daylight
Rolling heavy, never looking behind
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, Texas wind keeps calling
Hey yeah, keep on riding
Oh oh, wheels keep rolling
Hey yeah, dust is flying
Outro
Sun sinks low on the county line
Chrome and scars make a badge of time
Vultures circling like spun out tales
Still got miles and a heart that never fails
Rolling down past the ghost towns fading
Highway signs and the hope I’m chasing
Hands on the wheel, grit in my veins
Texas rides on, never breaks the chain
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, wild roads are calling
Hey yeah, the night ain’t dying
Outro Continued
Heat on my neck and a will like thunder
Ghosts of the trail that I still ride under
Tumbleweed dancing in my rearview sight
History burning in the hush of night
Copper moon hanging over lost highways
Old scars singing in the hoarse refrain
Steel and leather, the story goes on
Texas winds howling, I keep rolling strong
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, wheels keep turning
Hey yeah, the fire keeps burning
Oh oh, dust in the sunrise
Hey yeah, I’m alive for the ride
Outro Extended
Dawn breaks red on the old mesquite
Boot heels pounding a stubborn beat
Every new mile carves a line in my hand
Scars and stories, the mark of this land
Loose gravel flying by the railroad tracks
Lightning veins running down my back
Raise a toast to the dust and the days
Wild and gone, but I’m set in my ways
Post-Chorus
Oh oh, horizon keeps rising
Hey yeah, this ride’s never dying
