Paul Russell
Open Road
[Intro]
No, no, no
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
Soon, I'll be home
Where the friends give hugs and the trucks don't skip like stones
Give a hand, don't force
'Cause it takes all day just to get me to call on the phone
And ooh, ooh to be bold
Sometimes that's what I want when I can't hold away from my bones
Wish I could zoom through the cold
And just get back here next flight with a year full of growth

[Chorus]
And I guess it's on You God
Don't let me get too far
Don't let me get my shoes off
And You knew before the tunes dropped
Then really every day after is You God
Don't let me get too far
Don't let me get my shoes off
You knew before the tunes dropped
Then really every day after is o-o-open roads
From coast to coast
But this one's home
That's all I know
I said o-o-open roads
From coast to coast
But this one's home
That's all I know
[Post-Chorus]
I said oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I said oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Verse 2]
Yeah, everybody old friends nowadays
Something 'bout moving, makes feel like you go way back
And now I'm on the phone with people I grew up with
Feel like a stranger when they ask me where I stay at is
Day trains and late planes and pay lanes
Used to turn the thing around and bring it way back
It's confusing when you don't know what you're doing
Guess we'll see it in the playback or at least I gotta say that today
We all outta town some distance away
Our home around insisting to stay
It'll be Christmas in days but forget what this weighs
Just listen in case you get sick of the waves
Meantime, just hold it down for me
Play the old school soul jams loud for me
Hit the train, southbound downtown for me
Do-me sware on the balcony
I heard time away tho can be the best thing
I'ma hit y'all up, so text me next week
Shoutout Dallas, LA, and SD
Just stay blessed
[Chorus]
And I guess it's on You God
Don't let me get too far
Don't let me get my shoes off
And You knew before the tunes dropped
Then really every day after is You God
Don't let me get too far
Don't let me get my shoes off
You knew before the tunes dropped
Then really every day after is o-o-open roads
From coast to coast
But this one's home
That's all I know
I said o-o-open roads
From coast to coast
But this one's home
That's all I know

[Post-Chorus]
I said oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I said oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
