I hear hear your voice shaking on the end of the line
Hold on baby I'll be there in a sweet little while
Blue sky blue sky's calling telling me to move on
Around here everyone's fading or already gone

This town is broke down baby
Full of dust from rusted dreams
I gotta get before it gets me
I need to hear that blacktop sing
Underneath my highway wings
My highway wings

I hear too too many stories about what could have been
Everybody here would be different if they could do it again
But I'm not I'm not gonna stay here there's no way to win
In a town of dead end losers I don't wanna fit in

This town is broke down baby
Full of dust from rusted dreams
I gotta get before it gets me
I need to hear that blacktop sing
Underneath my highway wings
My highway wings

I need to know
I need to feel
What it'd be like far away from here
The time has come
To say goodbye
Yeah it's time for me to fly

This town is broke down baby
Full of dust from rusted dreams
I gotta get before it gets me
I need to hear that blacktop sing
Underneath my highway wings
My highway wings
