Andy Judkis - Rocks in My Head Lyrics

I was quite an idiot, and quite a dreamer too
Nineteen years old and horny as a toad
A sleeping bag, a new backpack, a head full of Jack Kerouac
I left the house, and set off on the road
I walked down to the freeway ramp and stood out in the sun
No idea what I was meant to do
I stuck my thumb up in the air, the sign I held said"Anywhere"
In half an hour everything was new

I had rocks in my head, I had wings on my feet
I couldn't talk but the road could make me sing
It made my momma worry, but I think it did me good
To find out what that highway could bring

You meet a lot of losers when you're standing by the road
I'm sure they thought the same about me
Some were high and some were low and some had nowhere else to go
That roadside rumble had no referee

Now I could tell you stories about women that I met
And the ex-cons and the perverts and the jive
I have a million stories and some of them are true
And thinking 'bout them makes me feel alive

I had rocks in my head I had wings on my feet
I couldn't talk but the road could make me sing
It made my momma worry but I think it did me good
To find out what that highway could bring

Poor Jack died back in '69 but me I've had a lot more time
I'm way older now but I ain't dead
I settled down I found a wife, been blessed to have a sweet old life
But I've still got those rocks in my head
That old urge to move still comes, that same blood in my veins
Pack on up and head on out the door
Sleeping bag goes in the van, I don't give a great goddamn
Freeway ramp and pedal to the floor

Still got rocks in my head and wings on my feet
Still can't talk but the road still makes me sing
It makes my children worry but I know it does me good
To find out what that highway can bring
It makes my children worry but I know it does me good
To find out what that highway can bring
