"Highway Hypnosis" lyrics - BILLY STRINGS
I'm burning, I'm smoking
Got to keep these wheels a-turning
The hot road underneath me
This cataclysmic journey
White lines and traffic signs
Ain't nothin' I ain't missin'
I can't stand in the drivin' daze
I'm consciously road trippin'
[Chorus:]
Gone like the wind
Oh, I'll see your face again
Passing through your town before you know
I gotta do my time
With this old guitar of mine
White line fever leads me to the show
Well, the road of life I travel on, I move along so freely
Mesmerized and satisfied with the beauty that has found me
I travel on and sing my song to anyone who'll listen
Forever mindful of the gift that I been given
[Chorus:]
Gone like the wind
Oh, I'll see your face again
Passing through your town before you know
Well, I gotta do my time
With this old guitar of mine
White line fever leads me to the show
[Instrumental]
(Highway hypnosis)
(Highway hypnosis)
(Highway hypnosis)
Well, the car, she is against me and I'm runnin' for my money
I need to have a hobby, my guitar, and my sweet honey
News travels fast, my friend, but I keep traveling faster
Angels, they watch over me to keep me from disaster
[Chorus:]
Gone like the wind
Oh, I'll see your face again
Passing through your town before you know
Well, I gotta do my time
With this old guitar of mine
White line fever leads me to the show
[Outro:]
(Highway hypnosis)
(Highway hypnosis)
