Lyrics and pictures
GOOFY:
Do ya need a break from modern living
Do ya long to shed your weary load
/ If your nerves are raw and your brain is fried
/ Just grab a friend and take a ride together on the open road.
MAX GOOF: All in all I'd rather have detention
/ All in all I'd rather eat a toad
![My old man drives like such a klutz](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKIkwpoZEtP-u5au5ae6OYnkPCdqk_OGXu2muvvI-druO13FbH0edcfUws2bbX-vdjfKvKWmxbNJSYomG0rveeHMCRSjJJOq0OeacmMOj9cLuHv9Q4m4PG1QL_YBJpwpBXUTfa2VFrjgws/s1600/12.jpg)
My old man drives like such a klutz
/ That I'm about to hurl my guts
/ Directly upon the open road.
GOOFY: There's nothin' can upset me
/ 'Cause now we're on our way
/ Our trusty map will guide us straight and true.
MAX GOOF: Roxanne, please don't forget me
/ I will return someday
/ Though I may be in traction when I do.
GOOFY: Me and
Max relaxin' like the old days.

MAX GOOF: This is worse
/ Than dragon breath and acne, I'm so mad
GOOFY: In a buddy-buddy kind of mode
MAX GOOF: I think I may explode.
GOOFY: When I see that highway I could cry.
/ You know, that's funny.
MAX GOOF: So could I
GOOFY AND MAX:
Just bein' out on the open road
![Just bein' out on the open road](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBClrFAZ56IN2bdHItwFGt_UsbZRk2bYSt3tt186ER1sEhcxMXLhZ1fOt1EGAaos5ivko_u6BEHu-qpniRtEHl-jj1TdzPUyA-2kK5A6ypl_Ctm8UX47cC-CGsue4tC0jVmllojFJ0xWhP/s1600/14.jpg)
CHORUS:
Howdy, boys, is this the way to Nashville
/ Watch it, mac or you'll be gettin' towed
/ I'm in no hurry to arrive 'cause I'll be turnin' 65
/ The next time I sees the open road
/ Just a week of rest and relaxation
/ And the odd romantic episode
/ Very odd.
/ And it's California or bust
/ Look out, you dirt-bags, eat my dust
/ From now on I own the open road
GOOFY: It's me and little Maxie
My pipsqueak pioneer.
CHORUS:
They're partners forever
![They're partners forever](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3wSvEqKm5dHTrQwhb76d5VOFZgDtOwgBxqRFZEhOADw-1ZDC7MBxZQOWINMKlVWigpkPNxJ03b7RnKnUG4bCvBcd2pV8aeDobhCqPl90NvLpLcgwl77UW_ugKXPqAlPYRbz1Zm4rV_NY4/s1600/15.jpg)
Westward ho.
GOOFY: Yee-haw.
MAX GOOF: Could someone call a taxi
/ And get me outta here
/ To Beverly Hills 90210
CHORUS: Oh, every day another new adventure
/ Every mile another new zip code
/ And the cares we have are gone for good
/ And I'd go with them if I could
/ I got no strings on me
/ I'm feelin' fancy free
/ How wonderful to be
/ On the open road.
