Highway Boys

Highway boys on the road tonight

Got a, gig out at the Ryman

Finally learned the hard way

That all good things take time, my friend

Of a playin' lost soul

To sing his songs true

They make a southern boy cry

Turn a northeast man confused

And I awoke with a fever

Sweatin' oceans again

There's mirrors in hotel rooms

But I do not recognize them

Maybe it's the feelin'

That I get in my sleep

But all the memories in my mind

Are only mine to keep

I wanna ride that K-10 to way back when

Sleep next to the river, hear it rushin' again

Give my no-good soul back to where it belong

And do my best to keep truth in songs

And do my best to keep truth in songs

And all of my old friends miss

Havin' me around, but

Highways work both ways

And I can't stand the liars in town

If you need me you can find me

Slightly outta control

'Cause highway boys don't rest

And don't hang hats till they're home

Highway boys on the road tonight

Got a, gig out at the Ryman

They finally found out the hard way

That this sound I got is my mine, man

So if you need me, call

If you're in love, fall

Just know that highways boys

Don't stick around at all

I wanna ride that K-10 to way back when

Sleep next to the river, hear it rushin' again

Give my no-good soul back to where it belong

And do my best to keep truth in songs

And do my best to keep truth in songs

Highway boys on the road tonight

Got a gig out at the Ryman

They finally found out the hard way

That this sound I got is my mine, man
