Les paroles de la chanson
« On the road »
John Denver
Back in 1958
We drove an old V-8
And when it gone a hundred ’thou
We got out out pushed it a mile
*refrain*
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
*refrain*
Met a girl in a truck café
Fell in love almost right away
Then the Mercury was ready to go
And I had to leave her
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
*refrain* x2
We were just riding on...
We were just riding on the road.
We drove an old V-8
And when it gone a hundred ’thou
We got out out pushed it a mile
*refrain*
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
*refrain*
Met a girl in a truck café
Fell in love almost right away
Then the Mercury was ready to go
And I had to leave her
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
*refrain* x2
We were just riding on...
We were just riding on the road.
