I was not born in this town
But that ol highway wore me down
Days roll by and turn to years
I dont know why Im still here
He told me he loved me so
But there were things hed never know
Then one day I said Id stay
But hed already turned away
I dont know why I gave into to love when it called my name
Now Im lonely, the highway dont know me, and loves to blame
I swore Id hit the road again
And I would not recall a thing
But every time I tried to leave
Love came tuggin at my sleeve
I dont know know why I needed to hear someone call my name
Now Im lonely, the highway dont know me, and loves to blame
Last night I was fast asleep
Pray the lord my soul to keep
But I woke up to that highway sound
I knew Id never leave this town
