      C#
Well sometimes I lose my direction,
     G#
And sometimes I jump off track
F#                   B
But when I ride out baby,
      C#             A#m B
I can always get back

I need to feel the cool breeze in my face,
The rumble of the engines between my legs
Hey little sister, You can color me gone

   G#
So if I want to stay out all night long,
           A#m
You can't stop me from running wild
F#
Yeah don't worry how long I'm gone,
      G#
I'll come back every once and a while

Chorus:
            C# A#m   B            C# A#m B
I pick them up,   I lay them all down
         F#          B                  C#  A#m
I never like my feet, to ever hit the ground
       B                C# A#m B
Don't miss me when I'm gone,
                   C# A#m B
because I'll be around
        F#                     B
I'm a free spirit baby pick me up
               C#
and lay me on down

Well I know I got a good life,
Jim Beam, And women, They treat me right
I make my own rules, Like it or not
Now don't misunderstand me baby,

I give it every once and a while
Well it's tough love honey,
But I'll leave you with a smile
So if I want to stay out all night long,

You can't stop me from running wild
Now don't worry how long I'm gone,
I'll come back every once and a while

Chorus

I've been here, I've been there,
I've been everywhere
I wouldn't tell you no lies
And just like me you're a wild one,
Won't you take me for a ride

Chorus

You got to lay me on down, Yes you do
I'm a free spirit, Oh you know you are Johnny
Oooooooh That's what I am Oooooooh
