Dwight King - I'll Take the Highway

When I die
I would like to live in the cracks of a highway
And help hold up anybody going somewhere
Spend all my time wrestling with the weeds and the gravel falling in

The trees fall down and the grass gets mowed beside me
And the tears fall down and the cars get towed aside
I wonder what it's like to live above the cracks
But that's not my way
So I'll take the highway

When I'm alive
I would like to go no slower than 95
And speed away all my wasted time
Cause when I'm alone and learning I feel like a firefighter in a city burning

But trees fall down and the grass gets mowed beside me
And the tears fall down and the cars get towed aside
I wonder what it's like to live above the cracks
But that's not my way
Oh so I'll take the highway

Sometimes I want to give up and just go out on the run
Get on out of this truck stop town burn down a house just for fun
And get my name in front page papers for all acquaintances to see
At least I'll be wanted
At least I'll be wanted

But trees fall down and the grass gets mowed beside me
And the tears fall down and the cars get towed aside
I wonder what it's like to live above the cracks
But that's not my way
Oh so I'll take the highway
I'll take the highway
I'll take the highway
