Met a woman in Vancouver
Nearly drove me outta my mind
She told me she was looking
For a man that could satisfy her

She was married to a law man
and life was passing her by
in a two room shack
and now she wanted to fly

You know a man of hunger is a man of fear
and being hungry for your love
is being hungry for my blood
a jealous man can make a big man run
and i am running like the devil through the morning sun

Trans-Canada Highway take me home
Trans-Canada Highway take me home
take me home

Moved out of town in a hurry
he's chasing me mile after mile
I'm driving 'coz i'm knowing
that i've got his lady with me

i see a sign for toronto
almost making me smile
the border's in sight
i think i'm gonna be free

you know a man of hunger is a man of fear
and being hungry for you love
is being hungry for my blood
a jealous man can make a big man run
and i am running like the devil for the morning sun

trans-canada highway take me home
trans-canada highway take me home
take me home

the morning paper had a photograph
of his burnt out wreck and it made me laugh
i told the lady but the lady ran
and now the papers say i'm a wanted man on the

(2x)
trans-canada highway take me home
Trans-canada highway take me home
take me home
