Prisoner of the Highway
Diesel powers eighteen wheels are rolling as I
Pull it on to the interstate
I got thirteen hours to make my destination and I
Don't wanna stop to check my way
There won't be no sleep for me tonight no
I gotta be hitting Tulsa by first morning light
I'm a prisoner of the highway
Driven on by my restless soul
Call me a prisoner of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road
I've run freight out of wheeling, West Virginia
And U.S. steel from Bethlehem
And I've rolled tobacco out of the Carolinas
California wines into Birmingham
Some people work just to survive, yeah
But up here in this cab is when I'm most alive
I'm a prisoner of the highway
Driven on by my restless soul
Call me a prisoner of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road, yeah
Got a wife living back in Tennessee
She tries to understand the way I feel
I could give my hands to another line of work
But my heart would always be behind the wheel
Call me a prisoner of the highway
Driven on by my restless soul
I am a prisoner of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road
We are prisoners of the highway
Driven on by our restless soul
Yeah we are prisoners of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road
Don't you know I'm a prisoner of the highway (ooh)
Driven on by my restless soul (yeah)
We are prisoners of the highway (here we go)
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road
That's right
Pull it on to the interstate
I got thirteen hours to make my destination and I
Don't wanna stop to check my way
There won't be no sleep for me tonight no
I gotta be hitting Tulsa by first morning light
I'm a prisoner of the highway
Driven on by my restless soul
Call me a prisoner of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road
I've run freight out of wheeling, West Virginia
And U.S. steel from Bethlehem
And I've rolled tobacco out of the Carolinas
California wines into Birmingham
Some people work just to survive, yeah
But up here in this cab is when I'm most alive
I'm a prisoner of the highway
Driven on by my restless soul
Call me a prisoner of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road, yeah
Got a wife living back in Tennessee
She tries to understand the way I feel
I could give my hands to another line of work
But my heart would always be behind the wheel
Call me a prisoner of the highway
Driven on by my restless soul
I am a prisoner of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road
We are prisoners of the highway
Driven on by our restless soul
Yeah we are prisoners of the highway
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road
Don't you know I'm a prisoner of the highway (ooh)
Driven on by my restless soul (yeah)
We are prisoners of the highway (here we go)
Imprisoned by the freedom of the road
That's right
