The "Rolling Stone" idea came to me while I was on an Amtrak train leaving a weekend of recording in a Philadelphia hotel room to come back to Baltimore and record in another. The whole idea of hopping the train solo to different cities to handle business made me feel like a vagabond in a way...I really felt like a rolling stone. I murmured a makeshift hook in my phone and went directly to the piano when I pulled in. From there I just built on the theme lyrically and melodically. The storyline came naturally, I actually started seeing the visuals as I was creating the sound and the song just came to life. After the structure was set up, I felt the need for a different vocal texture than what I had laid down on the hook. It was only right to call my friend and former band mate, Garrett Anderson who has an incredible vocal tone...I also talked him into bringing his Les Paul in to rip some guitar. He absolutely nailed it. The track is on fire...it couldn't have turned out any better.

Lyrics:
Chorus:
At night I hit the Road
I'm on my own
And try not to lose control
Hey Rolling Stone
Verse 1:
Put me on a plane
Put me on a train
Put me in a car and give me the fast lane
I'ma go when there's no traffic
I'm trying to get away from this madness
Matter of Fact, I hope there's no baggage to clai
When I arrive it's only for a tad bit
I know the street light's dim
And the moonlight's on
But when it hits morning baby I gotta move on
I could never lay my hat too long
It's on to the next destination
Can't stop...short clock and I'm racing
They can come and try to check my spot but it's vacant
No reservation, I'm leaving no relevant evidence
I'm headed to the station
So maybe we can get a round but I can't stick around
'Cause I gotta handle business then I am skipping town
...And I'm rolling.
Chorus:
At night I hit the Road
I'm on my own
And try not to lose control
Hey Rolling Stone
Verse 2:
I'm in a brand new city on the way to the South
On the north side of town trying to find my way out
Hit Tennessee and ran into a Southern Belle
Looked like a cover girl, said she likes to show and tell
Back on course and headed north
And then I ran into a Philadelphia girl, I rung the bell
See I'm a rolling stone
I'ma skip town, I could never go home in the middle of a mission
Girl I got a ticket
Listen, when I come back I will visit
You don't really care you just want me to be here and
When I throw game all you do is catch feelings
Listen, you can only be a fill-in
'Cause even though you move me, my life is a movie
The camera is rolling, I can't stick around
'Cause I gotta handle business then I am skipping town
...And I'm rolling
Chorus:
At night I hit the Road
I'm on my own
And try not to lose control
Hey Rolling Stone
Bridge:
We got caught in the moment
Only one night in your city and I'm rolling
So if you want to do more than I want to do
Then maybe you should move on 'cause I'm on the move
So maybe we can get a round but I can't stick around
'Cause I gotta handle business then I am skipping town
...And I'm rolling.
Chorus:
At night I hit the Road
I'm on my own
And try not to lose control
Hey Rolling Stone
