Graduating,
Boys and girls just turned 18,
Don't know where they're headed,
Living life in the land of the free,
There's so many faces,
Cross the 50 States of USA,
You've got so many places baby,
Yeah and life's what you make it so don't think
Just tell 'em you're going,
Living life on the wild side,
Get out on the road,
Take a backseat down that highway,
And send me a postcard,
Tell me 'bout everything you've done,
From cities to small towns,
See it all while you're still young,
Just out on the run in America
Call your friends up,
Take 'em with you when you go,
Another mile, another truck stop,
Down some unfamiliar road,
Got a suitcase of memories,
Save 'em up for when you're old,
And laugh about all the good times,
And the days when you left home
You gotta tell 'em you're going,
Living life on the wild side,
Get out on the road,
Take a backseat down that highway,
And send me a postcard,
Tell me 'bout everything you've done,
From cities to small towns,
See it all while you're still young,
Just out on the run in America
Hey, Hey, Hey-aye,
Hey, Hey, Hey-aye,
Yeah we don't look back on the days when we're waiting round, We're gonna look back at the times when we headed on out
Tell 'em you're going,
Living life on the wild side,
Get out on the road,
Take a backseat down that highway,
And send me a postcard,
Tell me 'bout everything you've done,
From cities to small towns,
See it all while you're still young,
Just out on the run,
Yeah we're out on the run,
Out on the run in America
