Crank the Radio Up

Verse

Fourty five on the clock outside my door

One last cup of coffee, I'm done with this floor

I've been working for two years now, but I'm not tired

Just a little restless, like the highway's fired

Truck is paid off, gas tank's full and bright

I'm trading daylight for the neon lights tonight

Pre-Chorus

So turn it up loud

So I can hear the night

It's calling me in

And I'll be alright

Where the open road meets open air

That's where my heart decides to go there

So crank the radio up, I'm leaving it all behind

Let the music lift me into tonight

Chorus

Crank the radio up, turn it down low

I'm driving right through the hours we used to know

Fuel for my soul in every single song

Driving right into where I don't belong

Crank the radio up, turn it down low

I'm finding myself where the engine goes

Verse

Sun sets slow on the highway line

Tail lights from a truck that just crossed mine

Rustic sign that says we're not alone

Gas station man's got a smile and no home

Nighttime pulls in like a blanket wide

Stars appear one by one up above inside

Nothing much is left but the miles ahead

Just me, the highway, my guitar, and the rhythm in my head

Pre-Chorus

So turn it up loud

So I can hear the night

It's calling me in

And I'll be alright

Where the open road meets open air

That's where my heart decides to go there

So crank the radio up, I'm leaving it all behind

Let the music lift me into tonight

Chorus

Crank the radio up, turn it down low

I'm driving right through the hours we used to know

Fuel for my soul in every single song

Driving right into where I don't belong

Crank the radio up, turn it down low

I'm finding myself where the engine goes

Bridge

No schedule left but the ones I make

Not a name on the map that I must undertake

Just the wind through open glass and my own two hands

That's all the plan a man needs to stand

Outro

So crank the radio up, turn it down low

I'm driving right into where I don't know
