I've been to school in Boston
Laid my guitar down in Austin
I've 18 wheels out of Delaware
I've laid pipeline in Alaska
Detacled corn in West Nebraska
Going nowhere, going nowhere
I've spent a summer on a boat
Of all the places that I've traveled
Girl, I never dreamed I would
Here, looking in your eyes
while the Alabama sun sets in the west
But who would have guessed
I could have wound up anywhere
is that every winding road
Now, kick off these restless boots
Sit down and sink some roots
Deep with you in this red
But no more trucks, no more trains
Cause, baby, I've got everything I need
Here, looking in your eyes
While the Alabama sun sets in the west
through your old burnt hair
I could've wound up anywhere
Is that every winding road led
Those winds of change keep blowing
But here, look him in your eyes
While the Alabama sun sets in the west
Girl, you can bet that I'll be here
Lyin' by your side with my
I'm going nowhere but here
