Blacktop Gone
Chasing Freedom: Jason Aldean's Blacktop Journey
Lyrics
One horse town, restless soul
Feeling constrained in a small, unchanging town
Wondering where the river and the freight trains go
Curiosity about the destinations of the river and trains, seeking adventure
Two lane road, hometown roots
Connection to one's origins in a simple, two-lane road
We're never gonna hold back my goodbye boots
Determined to leave without hesitation or delay
Just waiting on ready or not
Waiting for an opportunity, whether prepared or not
You know the first chance I got
Willingness to take the first available chance
I got blacktop gone, four lane fast
Enthusiastically embracing the fast pace of the highway
Topping off the tank with some never look back
Fueling up and committing to a journey without looking back
Chase that sun, race that wind
Pursuing the sun and wind in a competitive manner
With them horses that you can't fence in
Describing the freedom and untamed spirit akin to wild horses
Free like a freeway, high on a highway
Feeling liberated like a freeway, empowered on the highway
Cranking up a getaway song getting blacktop gone
Escaping reality with music while hitting the road
Girl you look like you might
Noticing someone who appears adventurous or daring
Do a little running out on the wild side
Suggesting the possibility of engaging in reckless behavior
I bet that kiss could slow me down
Recognizing the potential impact of a romantic gesture
But if you're looking for Mr. Stick Around
Declaring the inability to commit to a long-term relationship
Baby that ain't me
Expressing one's nature of not being a reliable partner
It's like I'm born to be
Feeling destined to live a transient, free-spirited life
Blacktop gone, four lane fast
Reiteration of embracing the swift pace of the highway
Topping off the tank with some never look back
Commitment to moving forward without hesitation
Chase that sun, race that wind
Actively chasing after the sun and wind in pursuit of freedom
With them horses that you can't fence in
Comparing the untamed spirit to wild horses
Free like a freeway, high on a highway
Feeling unbounded like a freeway, empowered on the highway
Cranking up a getaway song getting blacktop gone
Using music to escape and embrace the road
I'm just a good to go, one night show
Describing oneself as always prepared for a single-night performance
I'm ready to rock 'til I'm ready to roll
Willingness to rock out until ready to move on
And get blacktop gone, four lane fast
Emphasizing the commitment to a fast-paced journey
Topping off the tank with some never look back
Refueling and continuing the journey without second thoughts
Chase that sun, race that wind
Persistently pursuing freedom represented by the sun and wind
With them horses that you can't fence in
Comparing the untamed spirit to wild horses once more
Free like a freeway, high on a highway
Feeling unrestrained like a freeway, powerful on the highway again
Cranking up a getaway song getting blacktop gone
Utilizing music to find solace and liberation on the road
Blacktop gone
Reaffirming the commitment to embracing the road's freedom
Girl we're getting blacktop gone
Encouraging someone to join in the journey of embracing freedom
