Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We got a long way to go
To find a little dough
Wit'a map on my lap, we'll we'll know where we are at
We are goin' north, south or to the coast, yeah!
We make a quick stop at the convenient store
Turn the radio up, they are playin' our song
I'm gonna sing from
The top of my lungs yeah
Got a long road until tomorrow
Havin' it all, havin' some fun
Got a long road until tomorrow
Rockin' and rollin', havin' some fun
Stop! The police is behind
Don't wanna get a ticket or beat up by the cops
Out of the patrol comes a real tall man, he said:
"What you doin' son, have you heard the news?"
No sir! We are strangers tonight
We are cruisin' our way from New York to L.A
"We'll there's a killer on the loose, so you better take care
He's very high on booze and you'll wind up dead!"
Got a long road until tomorrow
Havin' it all, havin' some fun
Got a long road until tomorrow
Rockin' and rollin', havin' some fun
We went our way just to make it on time
Had a small brawl just to see how's to drive
"Hey man why don't you step on the gas
I'm tired in the car and I'm ready to dance"
Got a long road until tomorrow
Havin' it all, havin' some fun
Got a long road until tomorrow
Rockin' and rollin', havin' some fun
We were dreamin' of the water, the sea was a waitin'
We were taken by the laughter, the hours went faster
Got a long road until tomorrow
Havin' it all, havin' some fun
Got a long road until tomorrow
Rockin' and rollin', havin' some fun

There is still a considerable distance to travel before tomorrow
Rockin' and rollin', havin' some fun
Enjoying ourselves to the fullest, partying and having a great time
