|
On a lonesome highway it was gettin' late |
|
Not another set of headlights on the interstate |
|
I was miles from nowhere my only friend around |
|
Was a country station fadin' in and out |
|
And the road went on and on |
|
But it just kept hangin' on |
|
I can live with the static |
|
Lord but I can't turn it off |
|
It might not be clear and strong |
|
And sometimes it's here and gone |
|
Long as it keeps comin' back |
|
I can't turn it off |
|
I was feelin' kinda desperate as the sun came up |
|
They played "Hello Darlin'" and it was breakin' up |
|
The signal on that lighted dial was barely comin' through |
|
And I knew in a few more miles it'd be gone for good |
|
And the road went on and on |
|
But it just kept hangin' on |
|
I can live with the static |
|
Lord but I can't turn it off |
|
It might not be clear and strong |
|
And sometimes it's here and gone |
|
Long as it keeps comin' back |
|
I can't turn it off |
|
Be a long ol lonely ride without it |
|
When I can't hear enough |
|
Oh I just turn it up |
|
And the road went on and on |
|
But it just kept hangin' on |
|
I can live with the static |
|
Lord but I can't turn it off |
|
It might not be clear and strong |
|
And sometimes it's here and gone |
|
Long as it keeps comin' back |
|
I can't turn it off |
