Lost highway

In my rearview mirror

My life is getting clearer

The sunset sighs and slowly disappears

These trinkets once were treasure

Life changes like the weather

You grow up, grow old, or you hit the road 'round here

So I drive (drive drive)

Watching white lines passing by

My plastic dashboard Jesus

Waiting there to greet us


Hey Hey I finally found my way

Said goodbye to yesterday

Hit the gas, there ain't no brakes on this lost highway

Yeah, I'm busting loose, I'm lettin go

Out on this open road

It's independence day on this lost highway

Hey hey, hey hey


Don't know where I'm going

But I know where I've been

I'm afraid of going back again

So I drive (drive drive)

Years and miles are flying by

And waiting there to greet us

Is my plastic dashboard Jesus


Hey Hey

Hey Hey I finally found my way

Said goodbye to yesterday

Hit the gas, there ain't no brakes on this lost highway

Hell, I'm busting loose, I'm lettin go

Out on this open road

It's independence day on this lost highway

Hey hey

hey, hey


Oh patron saint of lonely souls

Tell this boy which way to go

Guide the car, you've got the keys

Farewell to mediocrity

Kicking off the cruise control

And turning up the radio

Got just enough religion

And a half a tank of gas

Come on

Let's go


I finally found my way

Said goodbye to yesterday

Hit the gas, there ain't no brakes on this lost highway

I'm busting loose, I'm lettin go

When I'm out on this open road

It's independence day on this lost highway

Hey hey
