Artist/Band: Tom T. Hall
Lyrics for Song: My Heroes Have Always Been Highways
Lyrics for Album: Natural Dreams [Mercury] [1984]



(Tom T. Hall)



My heroes have always been highways

And that's why I'm gone all the time

Route 60 ran by my house as a kid

And Lord how I loved the white lines.



I know there's a warm place beside you

And the kids ask about me sometimes

But my heroes have always been highways

I got a lowdown highway in mind.



Well, I missed all the PTA meetin's

I guess I'm not a PTA man

I've got a black coffee outlook and I dream

With a wheel in my hand.



Though I wish there was a way I could change

In anything that I do or I did

But my heroes have always been highways

And they have been since I was a kid.



--- Instrumental ---



And I love you the way that I love you

Not the way that another man would

I know that I live by a roadmap but all I wanna be great

And I wanna be good.



I guess I'm a quart low on something

That makes for a home loving kind

But my heroes have always been highways

I got a lowdown highway in mind.



My heroes have always been highways

I got a lowdown highway in mind...
