Lyrics
I remember back to the summer
on highway 101, we were searchin for the sun
one moment with this faded broken picture, so many hours to wash away, on the way to monteray.
oh the rain and the wind kept on whistlin, cloudy grew the windy pane but our sober hearts were listenin.
the steam of longing anticipation it was reminiscent of, the days when we loved.
Keep on drivin baby
Keep her movin on
theres no reason for you
to go and slow her down
we got a long way baby
follow the western sun
keep on goin baby
keep her moving on
