I got a hundred dollar bill in my right boot
I've been saving for a rainy day
I got a tank full of gas in the pickup
A suitcase and the guitar that I play
Something's telling me it's time for moving
And I've never been the one to sit and wait
I'm gonna hit that state line in a freedom state of mind
Never looking back the other way
Headin' west, another town, another place, headin' west
With the sunshine in my face
Leaving bad times behind me, about to moving on
I've got everything I own, I'm headin' west
I've thinking about leaving for a long time
And there ain't nothing standing in my way
I've got time and a half check a-coming
From a job I was working 'til today
And here is no one here to meet me in the morning
And there is nobody begging me to stay
And by sundown tonight I'll be rolling out of sight
Long gone and nothing left to say
Headin' west, another town, another place, headin' west
With the sunshine in my face
Leaving bad times behind me, about to moving on
I've got everything I own, I'm headin' west
Headin' west, another town, another place, headin' west
With the sunshine in my face
Leaving bad times behind me, about to moving on
I've got everything I own, I'm headin' west
Heading west, heading west
Leaving bad times behind me, about to moving on
I've got everything I own, I'm heading west
