In my rear-view 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 Watching white lines passing by With my plastic dashboard Jesus Waiting there to greet us
Hey, hey I finally found my way Say goodbye to yesterday Hit the gas There ain’t no brakes On this lost highway Yeah I’ve busted loose, I’m letting go Out on this open road It’s independence day On this lost highway
Hey, hey Hey, hey
I don’t know where I’m going But I know where I’ve been I’m afraid of going back again
So I drive Years and miles are flying by And waiting there to greet us Is my plastic dashboard Jesus
Hey, hey I finally found my way Say goodbye to yesterday Hit the gas There ain’t no brakes On this lost highway Yeah I’ve busted loose, I’m letting 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 got the keys Farewell to mediocrity Kicking off the cruise-control And turning up the radio Got just enough religion And a half tank of gas Come on, let’s go
I finally found my way Say goodbye to yesterday Hit the gas There ain’t no brakes On this lost highway I’ve busted loose, I’m letting go When I’m out on this open road It’s independence day On this lost highway
