Lyrics
[verse]
I'm the kind of fellow who can't stay in one place
Always got somewhere to be, always got to race
You can hear me coming like a train down the line
I'm gone before you even know it's my goodbye time
[chorus]
I'm a road runner, baby
Can't keep me tied down
I'm a road runner, baby
Gotta keep on covering ground
[verse]
Don't try to chain my heart to a single town
I was built for moving, built for running round
Love me while I'm here but don't expect me to stay
'Cause the highway's always calling me away
[chorus]
I'm a road runner, baby
Can't keep me tied down
I'm a road runner, baby
Gotta keep on covering ground
[bridge]
Every town's got a corner with my name
Every road's a story, every mile's the same
Restless is the rhythm that I carry in my chest
Running is the only way I know to rest
[chorus]
I'm a road runner, baby
Can't keep me tied down
I'm a road runner, baby
Gotta keep on covering ground
