I'm a singer 
I sing songs 

Piled into our big black van 
And the we drove it all across this land 
Playing music that was big and loud 
The open road is what it's all about 
Walking the streets of Athens, Georgia 
I passed a phone and thought I'd call you 
I miss you baby, really miss you a lot 
Your hugs and kisses get me hot, hot, hot 

Cheap thrills but not cheap girls 
We're just swine before the pearls 
I'm getting homesick and I just found out 
The open road is what it's all about 

we piled into our big black van 
That we had driven all across this land 
We played our music it was big and loud 
The open road is what it's all about
