Songs of the Highway

Say senorita won't you pour one for me
It's been a long hard road from Nashville, Tennessee
Each border I cross an unseen line
Reminds me what I've left behind
All my friends
So many miles away
So I'm singin'
To the wind
These Songs of the Highway
Late nights spent writing
Lost in a haze
Scan the horizon
To glimpse the green ray
Eye of Poseidon
It beckons to me
Carry my hardships on out to sea
There ain't no regrets
Beatin' in my chest
Wouldn't have it any other way
So I'm singin'
To the wind
These Songs of the Highway
It's true you don't know
What you had 'til it's gone
It haunts you like the ghost
Of a high lonesome song
I yearn to hold her close
As the autumn leaves fall
As the inmate yearns
To scale the prison wall
A day don't pass
Where I won't ask
Does she remember my name?
So I'm singin'
To the wind
These Songs of the Highway
