Whoa and I get so tired 

See the white line in the sun 

That old blacktop burns my feet 

Riding patient on my thumb 


Daybreak, it hits my forehead 

Wipe the sleepies from my eyes 

Sit up and greet the new dawn, new dawn 

It's the morning, time to rise 


Whoa and there ain't no hurry 

Ain't no place you gotta be 

No such thing as time out there 

Just the road, the cars and me 


I've seen both the mighty oceans 

Felt their sand beneath my feet 

I've shivered in the cold night 

And I've sweltered in the heat 


Shared times with lots of people 

Been a friend to every one 

Where I lay my head at night 

In blackness it's all the same 


Whoa, the long, long highway 

Always one more bend 

Take me round the corner 

Oh you are my friend 


Sometimes I start to wonder 

Where this road is leading to 

You can wander worlds forever and ever 

And never never be through 


Whoa the long long highway 

See the white line in the sun 

That old blacktop burns my feet 

Riding patient on my thumb
