the hillbilly thomists - old highway lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
our life was in a little town
where we had a little place
having fights on friday night
stars shining in empty sp+ce

there must be more out there
can’t live by bread alone
we have that wanderl+st
can’t feel so all alone
so we put a little gasoline
in the tank of the chevrolet
put songs on the radio
sang aloud to all the words we could sing

then we drove past the quarry
and we drove out of town
turned west on 66
and we never turned around

[chorus]
i’m gonna have a new life
on an old highway
gonna start my life again
in a chevrolet
gonna burn that engine down
it’ll be a good trade
gonna find myself
on the old highway

[verse 2]
got rings on my fingers
and a smoke in my t++th
i’m a little bit of gypsy
i’m a little bit of thief
making arguments with angels
drawing lines in the sand
starting life over every day
in a foreign land

now we’re living off of johnny cash
cold coffee and grace
don’t got to pass no more tests
don’t got to save no more face

just wander on the roadmap
one city at a time
just faces in the crowd
causing borderlines

[chorus]
i’m gonna have a new life
on an old highway
gonna start my life again
in a chevrolet
gonna burn that engine down
it’ll be a good trade
gonna find myself
on the old highway

[verse 3]
now, human eyes don’t see
but the lord has our back
and the stars are our company
and i guess that the angels keep track
cause we keep on wandering
like pilgrims on the way
to the land of heaven
in a chevrolet

[chorus]
i’m gonna have a new life
on an old highway
gonna start my life again
in a chevrolet
gonna burn that engine down
it’ll be a good trade
gonna find myself
on the old highway

[outro]
on the old highway
on the old highway
on the old highway
