Keepin' the Road Hot - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

They say when you find true love

You’d better hang on to what you’ve got

Find a way to make it last

Be sure that girl is yours

Well, my baby lives away 'cross town

Until things change, I’m blacktop bound

It makes me feel alive to rev it up and ride

I’ll be keepin' the road hot

I’m on the move, ain’t gonna stop

Hearts on fire and we’re miles apart

So I’ll be keepin' the road hot

I get up and I work all day

The minutes seem like hours as they tick away

By afternoon the time’s so slow

I’m a daydream night-time Romeo

Then the whistle blows and it’s time to rock

I head out for that parking lot

Car is on my side, I rev it up and ride

I’ll be keepin' the road hot

I’m on the move, ain’t gonna stop

Hearts on fire and we’re miles apart

So I’ll be keepin' the road hot

Mmm, that highway sound

Thinking of her as the wheels go ‘round

It’s got me hypnotized every time I ride

I’ll be keepin' the road hot

I’m on the move, ain’t gonna stop

Wheels are burnin' that ol' blacktop

Yeah, I’ll be keepin' the road hot

I’ll be keepin' the road hot

I’ll be keepin' the road hot, oh

I’ll be keepin' the road hot

I’ll be keepin' the road hot, oh

I’ll be keepin' the road hot
