I was not born in this town. But that ol' highway wore me down. Days roll by and turn to years. I don't know why I'm still here. He told me he loved me so. But there were things he'd never know. Then one day I said I'd stay. But he'd already turned away. I don't know why I gave into to love when it called my name. Now I'm lonely the highway don't know me and love's to blame. I swore I'd hit the road again. And I would not recall a thing. But every time I tried to leave. Love came tuggin' at my sleeve. I don't know know why I needed to hear someone call my name. Now I'm lonely the highway don't know me and love's to blame. Last night I was fast asleep. Pray the Lord my soul to keep. But I woke up to that highway sound. I knew I'd never leave this town
