Freeway to Monterey

After we talked on the phone
I packed a few things and left home
Gonna drive up and stay for the weekend
Don't wanna spend it alone

I'm keepin' my eyes on the road
Throw off my workaday load
Thinkin' of how you'll run out to meet me
Happy enough to explode

I'm on the freeway to Monterey
Baby, we're overdue
Won't be downhearted another day
I'm headed straight to you

Watching the signs
I'm right on time
Heart in high gear, I roar through Salinas
Leaving the week far behind

I'm on the freeway to Monterey
Baby, we're overdue
Won't be downhearted another day
I'm headed straight to you

The moon will glide across the sea
Light up (light up) the tide for you and me
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm on the freeway to Monterey
Baby, we're overdue, yeah, yeah
Won't be downhearted another day
I'm headed straight to you, hey

I'm on the freeway to Monterey
Baby, we're overdue
Baby girl, won't be downhearted another day
Headed to you (headed to you)
Yeah, oh

I'm on the freeway to Monterey
Baby, we're overdue, yeah, yeah
Won't be downhearted (another day)
Won't be downhearted
I'm headed to you (headed to you)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm on the freeway to Monterey
Baby, we're overdue
Won't be downhearted another day
I'm headin' up to see you, baby
(Headed for you)
