72 (This Highway's Mean) |
Don’t know why they even bother putting this highway on the map |
Everybody that’s ever been on it knows exactly where they’re at |
Hell’s on both ends of it |
And nowhere’s in between |
This highway’s mean |
Seems like it’s always hot down here, no matter when you come |
It’s the kind of heat that holds you like a mama holds her son |
Tight when he tries to walk, even tighter if he runs |
It’s a mean old dusty highway |
But it’s the only one that’ll get you there |
That’ll get you there |
Mean old highway |
Stuck to the ground in Mississippi |
It’s the one’ll set me free |
It’s the same one that I see |
Being ripped up off the ground and wrapped around me |
Don’t let it fool you this highway’s mean |
I don’t need a map to tell me where I am today |
This feeling that I have has always led the way |
Down here, you’re running from a broken heart |
Or to a heart that you have to break on this mean old highway |
