| Oh great mountain
|
| You won’t be moving any time soon
|
| Over the blue, shimmering water
|
| It’s the same moon
|
| Down on the eastern shore
|
| So like home you feel you’ve been before
|
| Never left wanting more
|
| So lovely and familiar
|
| I love it that way
|
| Constant sea I pray
|
| My heart’s on the old highway
|
| Oh, my heart’s on the old highway
|
| Prairies open wide
|
| Brilliant stars and biggest skies
|
| It’s always there with sweet surprise
|
| I soak up the night
|
| The more you see
|
| The more you know
|
| Days move slow
|
| But the loneliness will leave you
|
| I love it that way
|
| Far as I can see any time of day
|
| My heart’s on the old highway
|
| Oh, my heart’s on the old highway
|
| The moon is high, the tides are low
|
| Seas roll and winds blow
|
| People come and people go
|
| But the loneliness will leave you
|
| The loneliness will leave you
|
| Oooh oooh
|
| Oooh oooh
|
| Oooh oooh
|
| I miss home
|
| I miss my momma
|
| I miss the babies too
|
| When I’m on the road
|
| I’m out singing
|
| Singing the play for you
|
| The more you see
|
| The more you know
|
| Days move slow
|
| But the loneliness will leave you
|
| The more you see
|
| The more you know
|
| Days move slow
|
| But the loneliness will leave you
|
| I love you that way
|
| Home and family I crave
|
| My heart’s on the old highway
|
| Oh, my heart’s on the old highway
|
| My heart’s on the old highway
|
| Oh, my heart’s on the old highway |
