Hey hey! Hey hey!
And waiting there to greet us is my plastic dashboard Jesus
Yeah, I’m busting loose, I’m letting go, out on this open road
Hit the gas, there ain’t no brakes on this lost highway
Guide the car, you got the keys, farewell to mediocrity
Hey hey! I've finally found my way, say goodbye to yesterday
Yeah, I’m busting loose, I’m letting go, out on this open road
I don’t know where I’m going but I know where I’ve been
Hit the gas, there ain’t no brakes on this lost highway
You grow up, grow old or you hit the road ’round here
In my rear view mirror, my life is getting clearer
These trinkets once were treasure, life changes like the weather
And I’m afraid of going back again
With my plastic dashboard Jesus waiting there to greet us
Got just enough religion and a half tank of gas, come on, let’s go!
Kicking off the cruise-control and turning up the radio
Hey hey! Hey hey!
I've finally found my way, say goodbye to yesterday
So I drive, watching white lines passing by
Oh 'Patron Saint of Lonely Souls' tell this boy which way to go
Hit the gas, there ain’t no brakes on this lost highway
It’s Independence Day on this lost highway
It’s Independence Day on this lost highway
It’s Independence Day on this lost highway
Hey hey! I finally found my way, say goodbye to yesterday
Hey hey! Hey hey!
I’m busting loose, I’m letting go, well, I'm out on this open road
The sunset sighs and slowly disappears
So I drive, years and miles are flying by
