Chorus: Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a summer Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a time I guess I never took the time to tell you how much I love you Now you and the road keep flashing through my mind You and the road keep flashing through my mind I caught a sunrise service on a Sunday in North Dakota Imagine you and me singing in a gospel choir Spent a rainy night on a river in Oklahoma Saw the northern lights on a Minnesota night
And our souls went a little bit higher Repeat Chorus The old De Soto died on a hill it couldn't climb in Montana The kid who bought the wreck said "What the heck I'll give you a thirty five" So we were on our own, had our thumbs to take us home to California By the time we made Denver With our truck driving friend we had wheels on fire Repeat Chorus You and the road, you and the road on my mind
