Blackfoot

Highway Song is a song recorded by the American southern rock band Blackfoot and the lead single from their third studio album Strikes (1979). It reached #26 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song was recorded in the key of E minor with no key changes throughout. While the single version maintains its tempo throughout, the album version increases its speed at the close of the lyrical portion through the song's ending. Highway Song has often been considered similar to the song "Free Bird" by Lynyrd Skynyrd, particularly because it closes out with a long guitar solo. Lyrics: [Verse 1] Well, another day, another dollar After I've sang and hollered Oh, it's my way of livin' and I can't change a thing Another town is drawin' near Oh, baby, I wish you were here But the only way I can see you, darlin', is in my dreams [Chorus] It's a highway song You sing it on and on On and on [Verse 2] Well, the hurt you leave behind Its the hurt that's on your mind Oh, and last night's show took its toll on me Well, the city lights fly by me As I lay my body in my bed Oh, and dreams of you dance through my head [Chorus] It's a highway song You sing it on and on On and on Highway song Is as lonely As the road I'm on [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Oh Oh Oh-oh-oh [Verse 3] It's those big wheels are ready to roll We've been flyin' high and so low Lord, and all this madness ain't as crazy as it seems Everywhere they stop to stare I'm just a stranger on this road Oh, I stand alone only in my dream [Chorus] Highway song You sing it on and on On and on Highway song Is as lonely As the road I'm on Well, highway song (Highway song) Sing it on and on On and on (On and on) Highway song Is as lonely As the road I'm on Oh-oh-oh-oh Ooh-whoo [Guitar Solo / Instrumental Outro]
