There's Golden Moon Rise'n in the fields
Scarecrow highway, back roads
I'm lost on empty and hungry for a meal
And the taste of a day not wasted

When I'm down I let my wheels roll around
I come run'n to you and I roll my windows down
Like to know how it feels to trade your wings in on some wheels
Come with me and we'll take a ride, stick your hand out the passengers side
Down the river road, clear water flows
Down on the river road, it's where I want to go
Down the river road

There's a moth in the porch light, a curtained window pain
You're eyes in the screen door they tell me
You step out in the night air, call me by name
The crickets cry they're alibis come run with me

Step out
Let the wheels roll around
I'll come runn'n to you and I roll my windows down
Like to know how it feels to trade your wings in on some wheels
Come with me and we'll take a ride,
Stick your hand out the passengers side
Down the river road, clear what flows,
Down on the river road
It's where I want to go
Down the River Road
