Didn't we have ourselves some kind of a summer
Oh 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

Didn't we have ourselves...

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 thirty five
So we were on our own our thumbs to take us home to California
By the time we made Denver with our truck drivin' friend we had wheels on fire

Oh didn't we have ourselves...
Oh you and the road keep flashing through my mind
You and the road keep flashing through my mind
