about

If you drive a highway often enough, you leave part of your soul there...one way or the other.

lyrics

85 Drive

Oh lonesome highway
Oh lonesome road
Black ribbon through the heartland
Carry me home
Carry me home

Corn fields afire
Corn fields aflame
Black smoke rises, cloud disguises
Evening shade
Evening shade

Red lights flash, cops car goes past
Truck turned over in the tall gold grass
Mangled metal, broken glass
Cattails swaying
Fireflies out at last
Hope the end found them quickly
If their time here had come
May they find their way through dark skies
Into his loving arms

Oh lonesome highway
Oh lonesome road
Like a prayer
The road’s salvation will carry us home
Carry us home
Carry us home
