A song released this past spring by country singer Ned Ledoux is up for vote in this week’s Kick It or Keep It.

“Open Road” became available in March of 2022 as part of Ledoux’s Bucksin album. SVI Radio is already playing two songs from the album, including “The Mountain” and “Only Need One.” However, “Open Road” has also started getting more airtime with country radio stations.

Lyrics

Never was good at standing still
Always on the move
Sittin’ on the front porch killing time
Ain’t for ramblin’ boots
I need to see what’s over the hill
There’s places I’ve never been
The greatest sense of freedom
Is on that road that never ends

So put me back on that highway
Out on the open road
I ain’t chasin’ no destination
All I wanna do is go
I hear a whisper on the wind
Calling from the great unknown
I’ve got a dream and the gasoline
And this open road

Every town I find has a story inside
They got something to say
It ain’t about gettin’ to the end of the trail
It’s just life along the way
Secrets of the wonder and how
And knowing where I’ve been
Discoverin’ what’s around the next turn
The adventure starts again

So put me back on that highway
Out on the open road
I ain’t chasin’ no destination
All I wanna do is go
I hear a whisper on the wind
Calling from the great unknown
I’ve got the dream and the gasoline
And this open road

How ya gonna learn what you don’t know now
How ya gonna find what you need
If ya don’t go looking for the heart of the matter
You can’t unlock the mystery, Yeah

So put me back on that highway
Out on the open road
I ain’t chasin’ no destination
All I wanna do is go
I hear a whisper on the wind
Calling from the great unknown
I’ve got the dream and the gasoline
And this open road
This open road
