Back in nineteen
fifty eight
we drove an
old V-eight
And when it gone
a hundred thou'
We got out and
pushed it a mile
We didn't know
who we were.
We didn't know what
we did. We were just
on the road
Headin' down from Canada
On a gravel road a mile
from Montana. Then my
Daddy read a sign and took
us in the wrong direction
I asked my Daddy
where are we goin'
He said we'll
just follow our nose
So I looked out
the window
And dreamed
I was a cowboy
We didn't know
who we were.
We didn't know what
we did. We were just
on the road
Met a girl in a truck cafe
Fell in love almost right
away. Then the Mercury
was ready to go and I had
to leave her
Shooby Dooby Doo
Shoo Doo
Shooby Dooby Doo
Shoo Doo
Shoo Doo
Go home said the man
in the moon go home
Go home said the man
in the moon go home
Because it's gettin'
sort of late
And I'll soon
turn out my light
Go home said the man
in the moon
go home
We didn't know
who we were
We didn't know what
we did. We were just
on the road
We didn't know
who we were
We didn't know
what we did
We were just a ridin' on
We were just a ridin' on
the road
