And travelling people are my kin by birth
No chains will keep me from my destination
And far-flung are my footsteps on this earth

There's something in my mind that makes me
Something in their wind that takes me
Like the dust, I'm blown out on the street again
Restless highway
I need to leave this town behind
Restless highway
Some ?see the country of? my mind
You hear my footsteps wherever this rocky road will wind
This empty restless highway is my heart

I will trade anything you fancy
I'll ?sew your purse?, I'll milk your garden cow
I'll shine your shoes or sew your silver button
I'll punch your nose, I'll sharpen up your plough

There's something in my mind that makes me
Something in their wind that takes me
Like the dust, I'm blown out on the street again
Restless highway
I need to leave this town behind
Restless highway
Some ?see the country of? my mind
You hear my footsteps wherever this rocky road will wind
This empty restless highway is my heart

Restless highway
I need to leave this town behind
Restless highway
Some ?see the country of? my mind
You hear my footsteps wherever this rocky road will wind
This empty restless highway is my heart
This empty restless highway is my heart
