Lyrics

Highway Runner

Highway lead him to where he's never been

Show that drifter what he's never seen

Introduce him to this

Acquaint him with that

Gotta keep searching like a stray stray cat

Highway runner chasing time since the day he was born

Highway runner racing time around the world one more time

For one more time

It ain't even me can hold him down

Country just a breath from town to town

He got restless feet and a restless mind

Never wanna travel through the same place twice

Highway runner chasing time since the day he was born

Highway runner racing time around the world one more time

For one more time

Highway runner chasing time since the day he was born

Highway runner racing time around the world one more time

For one more time

One more time

Highway runner

One more time

Highway runner

One more time

Highway runner

You're gonna meet your match...
