I've been crawling through the trenches
In the jungle fighting these wars
And now I'm out in the streets with the children
And the dogs dodging cars
I'm like a highway
And she's like a pathway
We go our own ways
Hitchin' wagons to stars
Hanging out in the corners
In the shadows of the neighborhood bar
Just trying to drown out the memories
Of this crazy old heart
I'm like a freighttrain
And she's like a slow rain
We bear our own pain
Hitchin' wagons to stars
I'm like a highway
And she's like a pathway
I'm like a freighttrain
And she's like a slow rain
I like the night life
And she likes the day life
I'm like a highway
And she's like a pathway
