Used Cars The Highway
(N. Bottini) Drivin' on a road it was late in the night The rear view mirror showed me nothing but darkness Upon the things I've left behind Then I saw her hitchin' for a ride and I let her climb into my life And when the sun begun to shine Starin' at the flowin' white line She said: "Baby, the highway's still long" The highway shines in the light of the new morning sun Snakin' through things that come from afar They look so old when they pass me by So many things being lost or gained Through crossroads, hills and not warned turns Will make nothin' being the same As it looked from far away CHORUS: The highway's still long Yeah, the highway's still long The eye's on the line, the hand on the wheel is strong The highway's still long Some men they pray for livin' Some men they pray for dyin' But that ain't me I'm gonna roll on down the line, 'cause baby CHORUS On the road again alone With some memories and the fear That I won't find something that's better to long for I guess I'm just this kind of guy I stop sometimes but just for a while And then I start to ride again Til this blacktop river will show its end Meet me on the highway
