I got no money in my pockets
I got a hole in my jeans
I had a job and I lost it

But it won't get to me

'Cause I'm ridin' with my baby

and it's a brand new day
We're on the wheels of an angel
Flyin' away


And the sun is shinin'
This road keeps windin'

Through the prettiest country
From Georgia to Tennessee
And I got the one I love beside me

My troubles behind me
I'm alive and I'm free
Who wouldn't wanna be me


Now she's strummin' on my six-string
Across her pretty knees

She's stompin' out a rhythm
And singin' to me the sweetest song


The sun is shinin'
And this road keeps windin'
Through the prettiest country

From Georgia to Tennessee
And I got the one I love beside me
My troubles behind me

I'm alive and I'm free
Who wouldn't wanna be me


The sun is shinin'
And this road's still windin'
Through the prettiest country

From Georgia to Tennessee
And I got the one I love beside me
My troubles behind me

I'm alive and I'm free
Who wouldn't wanna be me


I got no money in my pockets
I got a hole in my jeans
We're on the wheels of an angel

And I'm free
She's strummin' on my six-string
It's across her pretty knees

She's stompin' out a rhythm
And she's singin' to me
