Lyrics

Well, I'm going down to see my highway girl
Yeah, she just got back from around the world
I'm going to get me a gun, I'm gonna stand on guard
In a little white booth in her front yard
Throwing rocks at her window, what could she do?
If you throw enough rocks one might break through
Well, she looked out her window when the police came
Yeah, to see a big tin man dancing in the rain
Oh, my little highway girl
Oh, my little highway girl, yeah
Don't you think, babe, you push a bit too fast?
I said, slowing down don't make it last
Yeah, she said a memory will never set you free, oh
Go out and see that world and bring it home to me
Oh, my little highway girl
All I have, yeah, all I want
My little highway girl
Oh baby, baby, come on home, come on home
My little highway girl
Oh, my little highway girl, yeah!
