Mr Jones - White Line of the Highway

Small town romance just like an old western movie
The little town where Woody Guthrie was born
Heading out for Oklahoma City
I wrote a song once 'bout this town where many had to die

Mansions of the settlers back in the old days
Route 66 cried freedom fifty years ago
The red-hot dust of the Oklahoma plains
And the white line of the highway in my rear view mirror

I feel fine I feel strong I feel young and I feel free
Out on the lonesome highway that's where I wanna be
I feel fine I feel strong I feel young and I feel free
While the white line of the highway sails under my wheels
While the white line of the highway sails under my wheels

A northern Texas thunderstorm in Pampa
Red stones and blue skies in the canyonlands
The signs of bars and motels by the side of the road
Can make you stay or keep you travelling on

Going further north and to old New Mexico
Hope there is not yet a snowin' on Raton
Up to Rocky Mountains' clear blue lakes
Autumn painted forests and a clear blue sky

I feel fine I feel strong I feel young and I feel free
Out on the lonesome highway that's where I wanna be
I feel fine I feel strong I feel young and I feel free
While the white line of the highway sails under my wheels
While the white line of the highway sails under my wheels

Back in the south West Texas and the plains
I can see the lone star that guides my way
A rattlesnake that crossed the road before me
Cannot keep me from going on

I feel fine I feel strong I feel young and I feel free
Out on the lonesome highway that's where I wanna be
I feel fine I feel strong I feel young and I feel free
While the white line of the highway sails under my wheels
While the white line of the highway sails under my wheels
