Lyrics:
Took a look down a westbound road, 
right away I made my choice 
Headed out to my big two-wheeler, 
I was tired of my own voice 
Took a bead on the northern plains 
and just rolled that power on 
Twelve hours out of Mackinaw City 
stopped in a bar to have a brew 
Met a girl and we had a few drinks 
and I told her what I'd decided to do 
She looked out the window a long long moment 
then she looked into my eyes 
She didn't have to say a thing, 
I knew what she was thinkin' 
Roll, roll me away, 
won't you roll me away tonight 
I too am lost, I feel double-crossed 
and I'm sick of what's wrong and what's right 
We never even said a word, 
we just walked out and got on that bike 
And we rolled 
And we rolled clean out of sight 
We rolled across the high plains 
Deep into the mountains 
Felt so good to me 
Finally feelin' free 
Somewhere along a high road 
The air began to turn cold 
She said she missed her home 
I headed on alone 
Stood alone on a mountain top, 
starin' out at the Great Divide 
I could go east, I could go west, 
it was all up to me to decide 
Just then I saw a young hawk flyin' 
and my soul began to rise 
And pretty soon 
My heart was singin' 
Roll, roll me away, 
I'm gonna roll me away tonight 
Gotta keep rollin, gotta keep ridin', 
keep searchin' till I find what's right 
And as the sunset faded 
I spoke to the faintest first starlight 
And I said next time 
Next time 
We'll get it right
