Keep on Rollin' Songtext
von Johnny Van Zant

(Johnny Van Zant/Al Kooper/Danny Clausman/Robert Gay)

Davey Lee broke jail last right
He can′t look back, got the hounds in sight
Swam the swamp and dodged the law
Ain't goin′ back to Raeford anymore.

Keep on rollin', cruisin'
Movin′ on down the highway
Keep on rollin′, cruisin'
Movin′ on down the highway.


Davey Lee's a bad, bad man
Folks in Florida understand
Robbed their banks and liquor stores
Ain′t goin' back to Raeford anymore.

Keep on rollin′, cruisin'
Movin' on down the highway
Keep on rollin′, cruisin′
Movin' on down the highway.

So lock your doors, turn on your lights
Davey′s on the loose tonight
Put your piece beside your bed
'Cause Davey remembers
What his cellmate said.


Keep on rollin′, cruisin'
Movin′ on down the highway
Keep on rollan', cruisin'
Movin′ on down the highway...
