Hi-Ways
Hi-Ways
There’s a long strip of blacktop as lonely as can be,
But I’m stuck with it, barely feeling free.
Seems like days since I’ve been roaring down this road
The sounds of the wind, the engine, and the wheels…
Help carry my heavy load.
I can’t remember the last time I was home
Out here with cold steel feeling all alone.
Much of my life has been spent this way
Staring down the barrel of the white lines, from day to day
CHORUS:
Oh the Hiways and the byways, the backstreets are my life
Endlessly traveling from days into nights
My journey never ends, for the road it is long.
This is my story called, the Hiway Song.
INTERLUDE-
If I had a choice to do it all again
You would think I’d come up with a better plan.
But the truth of the matter is the Hiway is my home
It’s just me and the road, the wind and the steel;
And that just how I feel
CHORUS:
Oh the Hiways and the byways, the backstreets are my life
Endlessly traveling from days into nights
My journey never ends, for the road it is long.
This is my story called, the Hiway Song.
Repeat Chorus at cut time
