Well, you said you had enough
You said that you were leaving
I said, "Shove off, honey
Baby, I ain't grieving
Pack your bags
And pull out this evening
There's a wide open road"
On Saturday morning
You where nowhere about it
So I searched the town
But you had done pulled out
I looked north, east and west
And then a leading south
I saw a wide open road
There's a wide open road
It's leading south from my abode
If you stick around
And turn your damper down
There's a wide open road
Well, the reason I was looking
For you all over town
Was to tell you that your kitty cat
Is still around
And you left your wedding ring
When you went down
That wide open road
If you gonna stay away
Then honey, let me know
How to cook hot biscuits
How to roll a dough
Everything's gone crazy
Since I told you to go
Down that wide open road
There's a wide open road
And honey, I want you to know
You can look down south
Or you can turn back home
And there's a wide open road
