Living on the highway l russell/d nix It was twenty years ago, i was about fourteen years old, When i first heard that wolfman's howl. He sneaked me through the door, there was whisky on the floor, And the fuzz they were on the prowl It seems so long ago, I'm living on the highway now He's a giant of a man, he always understands The very best notes to use His hand make two of mine, his heart beat right on time He taught me how to sing the blues He's the reason why i choose to live on the highway now I played the blues with walter, and muddy pulled me through I know a jimmy rogers song or two But there's one thing i know, no matter where i go I can do a little howling too That's why i sing these blues, i'm living on the highway now The years have come and gone but the blues still go on I only sing my songs for fun If you ask me to, i'll do a song for you, 'Cause the women like to see me come Me and my guitar, my band, we're living on the highway now

For once I want to be the car crash Not always just the traffic jam Hit me hard enough to wake me And lead me wild to your dark roads Headlights before me So beautiful, so clear Reach out and take it 'Cause I'm so tired of all this fear My tongue is lost, oh, I can't tell you Please just see it in my eyes I pull up thorns from our ripped bodies And let the blood fall in my mouth Headlights before me So beautiful, so clear Reach out and take it 'Cause I'm so tired of all this fear Headlights before me So beautiful, so clear Reach out and take it 'Cause I'm so tired of all this fear

It's the end of the movie and your story's been told No one's unhappy and no one got old And your heart doesn't break and it won't weigh a ton When life is just a sitcom and that's not the atom bomb You're a sole survivor 'cause your soul survived The first to understand it, the last one alive And you know we'll live forever 'cause that's just how it goes 'Til we all remember what everybody knows Just keep your eyes on the highway Just keep your eyes on the highway Eyes on the highway Just keep your eyes on the highway You, me, heading down the road now In front of seven billion souls now Just keep your eyes on the highway Just keep your eyes on the highway I know something doesn't feel right When you're blinded by the headlights Just keep your eyes on the highway Just keep your eyes on the highway You would die for each other and you probably will For every lover a lover, if looks could kill I would die in your arms 'cause that's the way to go And I won't disappoint you 'cause you will never know For every second that I wasted, every secret that I told Every lie I've ever whispered to everyone involved I couldn't be more sorry about how I got things done I just want to be John Travolta to Olivia Newton-John You, me, heading down the road now In front of seven billion souls now Just keep your eyes on the highway Just keep your eyes on the highway I know something doesn't feel right When you're blinded by the headlights Just keep your eyes on the highway Just keep your eyes on the highway Just keep your eyes on the highway Just keep your eyes on the highway Eyes on the highway Just keep your eyes on the highway You, me, heading down the road now In front of seven billion souls now Just keep your eyes on the highway Just keep your eyes on the highway I know something doesn't feel right When you're blinded by the headlights Just keep your eyes on the highway Just keep your eyes on the highway

Don't leave I see bloodstains dripping on the seat I don't know if that's you or it's me But I know somewhere we can go Don't say we're better off dead All the lies everything that they said All these eyes in the back of my head But I know somewhere we can go Burn out the treehouse You can't talk to me now, no I'm gone When the smoke clears Who's really still here Don't tell me you're scared You don't really know fear You'll see when the light goes out It won't disappear Be real Do you know who you're looking at Looking in the mirror Are you in Anywhere at all we go off Say it's lonely at the top but it's not Half as bad as being down you forgot Sayin a lot Wrote the book they gotta study the plot We not really buddy buddy at all I know you just really want what I got Highs I'm peaking Four whole seasons Nights no sleeping Day comes creeping in Before I do it again Can't help we're goin in circles How you treat me like I'm a person How you treat me like I deserve it Self-sabotage I'm working on it This house we built I'm working on it Just tell me are you happier?
