Highway Queen

Well, I heard tell of a woman out there

With tight blue jeans and long black hair

She'll come play, she won't stay, and it always brings him down

Some folks say there'll come a day

When she settle in some old town

But it's best you know there's a long, long road

She ain't gonna come around

Sixty thousand miles of blacktop

Countless broken hearts between

Winding lines of white that don't stop

Living the life of the highway queen

She's a song, leaves you pining

Rushing by like a melody

You can tie her down, you can bottle up

But the highway queen don't need no king

Well, one or two, they might've broken through

They might've nearly roped her in

But a fire like that is far too wild

It's gonna burn and burn again

Seasons fade, so does the paint

Blows away like a tumbleweed

You can't blame a girl for loving this old world

She can't help, she's a highway queen

Sixty thousand miles of blacktop

Countless broken hearts between

Winding lines of white that don't stop

Living the life of the highway queen

She's a song, leaves you pining

Rushing by like a melody

You can tie her down, you can bottle up

But the highway queen don't need no king

Highway queen don't need no king

Well, miles and miles, she keeps on rolling

Place your bets if you ain't folding

Miles and miles, no sign of slowing

It ain't who she loves, it's who she's holding

Sixty thousand miles of blacktop

Countless broken hearts between

Winding lines of white that don't stop

Living the life of the highway queen

She's a song, leaves you pining

Rushing by like a melody

You can tie her down, you can bottle up

But the highway queen don't need no king

Highway queen don't need no king

Highway queen don't need no king

Well, miles and miles, she keeps on rolling

Place your bets if you ain't folding

Miles and miles, no sign of slowing

It ain't who she loves, it's who she's holding
