There's a curve in the highway, just south of town where a man has pulled over to figure life out with only his concience and the lonesome sound of diesels winding up grade he's got a wife and two kids, and they love him so he's got a woman down in georgia, and she's startin' to show he's damned if he leaves her, and he's sure damned if he don't and he wonders how life got this way cuase it's a fine line in between right and wrong yea he's been crossing over that border way too long he should've seen it coming at him right from the start now there aint' no escape from a broken heart
now the call of the highway is a powerful thing like the pull of a lover, or a child in a swing gave his heart to two women only one wears his ring they're both gonna have his babies now so how do you confess, what words don't explain he never intended to cause this much pain now he feels like a farmer who went praying for the rain got more than he bargained from the clouds [chorus] he'll turn his car around tonight, go home and try to face the truth everyone involved's getting hurt, now there aint nothing he can do [chorus]
