第十三首 Where The Blacktop Ends（公路的尽头）

Gonna kick off my shoes

And run in bare feet

Where the grass and the dirt and the gravel all meet

Goin' back to the well gonna visit old friends

And feed my soul where the blacktop ends

I'm lookin' down the barrel of Friday night
想起星期五晚上
Ridin' on a river of freeway lights
在高速公路的车海里
Goodbye city I'm country bound
再见城市，我属于乡村
'Til Monday rolls around
在星期一到来之前
