In my rearview mirror My life is getting clearer The sunset sighs and slowly disappears These trinkets once were treasure Life changes like the weather You grow up, grow old, or you hit the road ‘round here So I drive (drive drive) Watching white lines passing by My plastic dashboard Jesus Waiting there to greet us
Hey hey I finally found my way Said goodbye to yesterday Hit the gas, there ain’t no brakes on this lost highway Yeah, I’m busting loose, I’m lettin’ go Out on this open road It’s independence day on this lost highway Hey hey, hey hey
Don’t know where I’m going But I know where I’ve been I’m afraid of going back again So I drive (drive drive) Years and miles are flying by And waiting there to greet us Is my plastic dashboard Jesus
Hey Hey Hey Hey I finally found my way Said goodbye to yesterday Hit the gas, there ain’t no brakes on this lost highway Hell, I’m busting loose, I’m lettin’ go Out on this open road It’s independence day on this lost highway Hey hey Hey, hey
Oh patron saint of lonely souls Tell this boy which way to go Guide the car, you’ve got the keys Farewell to mediocrity Kicking off the cruise control And turning up the radio Got just enough religion And a half a tank of gas Come on Let’s go
I finally found my way Said goodbye to yesterday Hit the gas, there ain’t no brakes on this lost highway I’m busting loose, I’m lettin’ go When I’m out on this open road It’s independence day on this lost highway Hey hey
