Daddy played fiddle in a travelin' band

Pinchin' every second hand penny he got

Bench seat sleepin' in the back of his van

Mama told me times were tighter than a clothes line knot

Big dreams drivin' us along

Racin' down the highway ridin' on a song

Nonstop map dot, blacktop pavement poundin'

Ever since eighty-nine cents a gallon

Yeah, I been a stray dog draggin' round an old six string

Diggin' for a bone since they cut that cord

Runnin' on off-ramp gasoline

Burnin' both ends in a hand me down Ford

Big dreams drivin' us along

Racin' down the highway ridin' on a song

Nonstop map dot, blacktop pavement poundin'

Ever since eighty-nine cents a gallon

Hey, real dreams ridin' on a song

Little Rock truck stop, coffee strong

Red eyes, white lines, dim lights shine to Jackson

Big dreams drivin' us along

Racin' down the highway ridin' on a song

Nonstop map dot, blacktop pavement poundin'

Ever since eighty-nine cents a gallon

Yeah, that's just how I've lived

Since eighty-nine cents a gallon

Eighty-nine cents a gallon

Eighty-nine cents a gallon

Eighty-nine cents a gallon
