Lyrics
I’m lookin’ out the window at the cold blue sky
Momma take the road off me
Watchin’ them big rigs rollin’ by
Momma take the road off me.
Thinkin’ ‘bout the old days,
Burnin’ up the highways, roarin’ fast and free
You fin’lly took me off-a the road,
Now Momma, take the road off me.

Chorus:
Momma, take the road off me,
Momma, take the road off me
Make me sit an’ just forget the man I used to be
Than hold me close and kiss away these highway memories.
You fin’lly got me off-a the road,
Now Momma take the road off me.

Well, drivin’ through the rays of the desert sun
Momma, take the road off me
‘Cross the cold wide rivers where the salmon run
Momma, take the road off me
From O-hi-o to Mexico, from sea to shinin’ sea
You finally got me off-a the road
Now Momma, take the road off me.

Chorus:

Last night I heard an old man barrelin’ by
Momma, take the road off me
And I thought I heard that diesel cry
Oh Momma, take the road off me
And it whispered, “Son, don’t you miss the runnin’
And crowin’ like you used to do?
They finally got you off-a the road
But they’ll never get the road off you!”

Chorus:
Momma, take the road off me
Momma, take the road off me
You know stayin’ here with you is where I wanna be
So hold me close and kiss away these highway memories
You finally took me off-a the road
Now Momma, take the road off me.

Chorus:
Momma, take the road off me
Momma, take the road off me
Make me sit an’ just forget the man I used to me
So hold me close and kiss away these highway memories
You finally took me off-a the road,
Now Momma, take the road off
Momma take a load off
Momma, take the road off me.
