Highway 54

歌詞

Sittin' in the kitchen with my back against the wall I was waitin' for my baby but my baby didn't call Suddenly there came a stranger knockin' on my door He told me there had been a wreck out on highway 54 She was with another man is what the stranger said I asked if she'd survived it but he slowly shook his head They were on their way to the other side of town They tried to beat a freight train, and the freight train ran 'em down CHORUS Highway 54 took my love away from me I knew she didn't want me, but I could not set her free She was with another like so many times before She paid the price of runnin' round out on highway 54 (yeah, run her down brother) [Interlude] Many sleepless nights have passed my broken heart since then The man that she was runnin' with once was my best friend All the dreams that I had they fill my mind no more 'Cause they died with her that tragic night out on highway 54 (repeat chorus)
