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
