[Verse 1] We all stumble through life's little funny race The typical challenges we all face The knot in the shoelace you can't untie [Verse 2] In a rush to get history underway Remember that the world wasn't built in a day And wherever you're going You'll get there in time [Chorus 1] So why don't we take to the open road Let the highway lighten the heavy load Put all out differences aside Get behind the wheel and drive I'll come along for the ride [Verse 2] Slow the pace in the search for your happiness We're all under construction from the very first breath Then the breaths turn to smiles And the smiles become tears [Chorus 2] Grab the wheel and now take the open road Let the highway lighten the heavy load WE can lay back a groove to the sound of the sweet stereo Barely moving, with no where to go So won't you get behind the wheel and drive I'll come along for the ride
