I finished school about a week ago
Packed my bags and hit the open road
Grabbed my tools and I grabbed my hat
Hit the road now theres no holding back

I kissed my girl about a week ago
She packed her bags and now shes here at home
Feels so good to have her in my arms
Things are better and not quite as hard
