Lyrics
When the time gets right
I'm gonna pick you up
And take you far away
From trouble my love
Under big ol' sky
Out in the field of green
There's gotta be something
Left for us to believe
Oh, I await the day
Good fortune comes our way
And we ride down the Kings Highway
No you can't hide out
In a six-gun town
We wanna hold our heads up
But we gotta stay down
I don't wanna end up
In a room all alone
Don't wanna end up someone
That I don't even know
Lover, I await the day
Good fortune comes out way
And we ride down the Kings Highway
Yeah, I await the day
Good fortune comes our way
And we ride down the Kings Highway
Yeah, I await the day
Good fortune comes our way
And we ride down the Kings Highway
Writer(s): Tom Petty
