Drivin' down this lonesome road Burdened by a heavy load Sand and asphalt are my friends Until this journey's at an end It's roadkill for my morning meal Birds of prey are at my heels Whiskey when I take my break Huffin' catnip to stay awake When my day comes to an end And the night is on the rise I bed me down just 'round that bend To sleep and rest my weary eyes Windswept and free Bein' who I wanna be Dazzled by the desert sand Wanderin' all about the land Seekin' high and seekin' low My nose tells me where to go A belly full will make me feel That I'm a cool cat at the wheel The taste of blood is in my mouth And the road is in my bones Rollin' east, west, north, and south I'm a cat who prowls alone Breaker, breaker, one nine Come on back on the city line Can someone tell me where to find Something to ease my worried mind? And when the journey's run out of road And the driver's out of time And when my tail has been all but towed You'll know that this cat's done fine Drivin' down this lonesome road I'm burdened by a heavy load Sand and asphalt are my friends Until this journey's at an end Sand and asphalt are my friends Until this journey's at an end
