Lyrics Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash

Wide Open Road

Well, you said you had enough

You said that you were leavin'

I said, "Shove off honey, baby, I ain't grievin'

Pack your bags and pull out this evenin'

There's a wide open road"

Early this mornin' you where nowhere about

And so I searched the town but you had done pulled out

I looked north, east and west and then a leadin' south

I saw a wide open road

There's a wide open road

It's leadin' south from my abode

If you stick around and turn your damper down

There's a wide open road

Well, the reason I was lookin' for you all over town

Was to tell you that your kitty cat was still around

And you left your weddin' ring when you went down

That wide open road

If you gonna stay away then honey let me know

How to cook hot biscuits, how to roll a dough

Every thing's gone crazy since I told you to go

Down the wide open road

There's a wide open road

And honey, I want you to know

You can look down south or you can turn back home

And there's a wide open road
