I grew where I was planted But I never felt at home My head was filled with questions And my feet, they long to roam My arms reached out like branches But my heart just couldn't stay I left the moment that I could, a prisoner of the highway
I passed by farms and trailers As I drove through little towns I found trouble in the city I never set my suitcase down And in those empty alleys Where retaining walls decay I just kept a-moving as a prisoner of the highway
Ooh, and I don't know where I'm headed Ooh, and I don't know where it ends
Well, the wind, it felt like freedom As it whipped through my hair I was everywhere and everyone I was nobody and nowhere Oh, the map was written on my hand and in my DNA I believe that I was meant to be a prisoner of the highway
Had chains around my ankles Handcuffs on my wrists I was haunted by decisions And simple things I missed Dear God, why do I wander? Was I born this way? And I prayed he would release me as a prisoner of the highway
Ooh, and I don't know where I'm headed Ooh, and I don't know where it ends
I sacrificed my family Sacrificed true love I sacrificed my unborn child to the heavens up above Oh, there was not a limit To those I would betray Oh, I was deep down in it as a prisoner of the highway I just kept a-moving as a prisoner of the highway (Highway, ooh)Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
