Words and music by bob seger<br><br>Took a look down a westbound road,<br>Right away I made my choice<br>Headed out to my big two-wheeler,<br>I was tired of my own voice<br>Took a bead on the northern plains<br>And just rolled that power on<br><br>Twelve hours out of mackinaw city<br>Stopped in a bar to have a brew<br>Met a girl and we had a few drinks<br>And I told her what I'd decided to do<br>She looked out the window a long long moment<br>Then she looked into my eyes<br>She didn't have to say a thing,<br>I knew what she was thinkin'<br><br>Roll, roll me away,<br>Won't you roll me away tonight<br>I too am lost, I feel double-crossed<br>And I'm sick of what's wrong and what's right<br>We never even said a word,<br>We just walked out and got on that bike<br>And we rolled<br>And we rolled clean out of sight<br><br>We rolled across the high plains<br>Deep into the mountains<br>Felt so good to me<br>Finally feelin' free<br><br>Somewhere along a high road<br>The air began to turn cold<br>She said she missed her home<br>I headed on alone<br><br>Stood alone on a mountain top,<br>Starin' out at the great divide<br>I could go east, I could go west,<br>It was all up to me to decide<br>Just then I saw a young hawk flyin'<br>And my soul began to rise<br>And pretty soon<br>My heart was singin'<br><br>Roll, roll me away,<br>I'm gonna roll me away tonight<br>Gotta keep rollin, gotta keep ridin',<br>Keep searchin' till I find what's right<br>And as the sunset faded<br>I spoke to the faintest first starlight<br>And I said next time<br>Next time<br>We'll get it right
