Paint It Black - Music from the Vietnam Era (1962-1975)

Rustic Rebel

Verse 1:
The highway's stretched out like a ribbon of white
The snow's gently falling, the world feels so bright
The radio's playing those old Christmas tunes
My heart's beating faster with holiday moves

Chorus:
Driving home for Christmas, the road is my friend
The holidays are here, time to laugh and to blend
Lots of wine and some beer, we're gonna celebrate
This magical journey, oh it feels so great!

Verse 2:
The headlights are cutting through darkness ahead
Memories of home are dancing in my head
Family's waiting, the fireplace aglow
The spirit of Christmas is starting to grow

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:
Miles disappear beneath my wheels
The excitement of home is all that I feel
Every mile marker brings me more near
To the people I love, the ones I hold dear

(Final Chorus)
Driving home for Christmas, the road is my friend
The holidays are here, time to laugh and to blend
Lots of wine and some beer, we're gonna celebrate
This magical journey, oh it feels so great!

Outro:
Driving home... driving home for Christmas
