I had been driving all night Till my car quit working right But no one seems too willing to stop Seems they're all off to the races And from the looks on their faces Well, I'm thinking that maybe I'm better off Better off just taking my time Down the highway of life He's driving 18 wheels Dodging automobiles He's got a picture on the dash of his cab Too many years on the road And now his family's all grown And they really don't remember that much about dad He just let his best years pa** him by Down the highway of life Down the highway of life There's nowhere to turn around Down the highway of life Love can be lost or found So don't let it all pa** you by Down the highway of life They come from miles around To hear this preacher expound About how God wants them to live They say, "He's so entertaining" But he has trouble explaining Why the love for his family he neglected to give Now they've left him alone to win souls Down this highway of life Down the highway of life There's nowhere to turn around Down the highway of life Love can be lost or found So don't let it all pa** you by Down the highway of life There's a danger in loving our dreams More than the things that matter Till one day, we look up to see The priceless gifts in life have scattered Down the highway of life There's nowhere to turn around Down the highway of life Love can be lost or found So don't let it all pa** you by No, don't let it all pa** you by Down the highway of life (Oh-whoa...) Down that highway Down that highway (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh...) Down that highway
