Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, the midnight headlight
Blind you on a rainy night
Steep grade, up ahead
Slow me down, makin' no time
But I gotta keep rollin'
[Verse 2]
Those windshield wipers
Slappin' out a tempo
Keepin' perfect rhythm
With the song on the radio
But I gotta keep rollin'
[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away
Lookin' for a better way for me
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away
Lookin' for a sunny day
[Verse 3]
Well, the truck stop cutie
Comin' on to me
Tried to talk me into a ride
Said I wouldn't be sorry
But she was just a baby
[Verse 4]
Hey, waitress, pour me
Another cup o' coffee
Pop it down, jack me up
Shoot me out, flyin' down the highway
Lookin' for the mornin'
[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away
Lookin' for a better way for me
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away
Lookin' for a sunny day
[Verse 5]
Well, the midnight headlight
Blind you on a rainy night
Steep grade, up ahead
Slow me down, makin' no time
But I gotta keep rollin'
[Verse 6]
Those windshield wipers
Slappin' out a tempo
Keepin' perfect rhythm
With the song on the radio
But I gotta keep rollin'
[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away
Lookin' for a better way for me
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away
Lookin' for a sunny day
[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away
Lookin' for a better way for me
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away
Lookin' for a sunny day, yeah
[Chorus]
Ooh, I'm drivin' my life away
Lookin' for a better way
For me
