Carol  took my photograph  in the rain at zero  mile
She  promised me a cigarette,  and I promised her my  best fake smile
Sittin  in the tall  grass, wishing  we were in another land
She  just lit my cigarette,  and took my by  the hand
Down  that highway
 It’s takin  me away from home
 Down that highway
 The only place  feel alone
 Me and Carol got married, when we turned 21
 And her daddy never like me
 To her mother I was the only son
 Wooden ghosts and car parts, were scattered through our backyard
 Lovin her was the easy to do
 Leaving was the only thing hard
 I went down that highway
 It’s takin me away from home
 Down that highway
 The only place feel alone
 Carol died 5 years ago, giving birth to our only son
 And her momma, daddy and me put her in the ground November 21
 And sometimes later at night, I sit at our bedroom window
 Wishin I was somewhere with her
 Just waitin for the wind to blow us,
 Down that highway
 It’s takin me away from home
 Down that highway
 The only place feel alone
 Down that highway
 Feels like its got no end
 Down that highway
 The white line is your only friend
 Down that highway
 Down that highway

Me and Carol got married, when we turned 21
And her daddy never like me
To her mother I was the only son
Wooden ghosts and car parts, were scattered through our backyard
Lovin her was the easy to do
Leaving was the only thing hard

I went down that highway
It’s takin me away from home
Down that highway
The only place feel alone

Carol died 5 years ago, giving birth to our only son
And her momma, daddy and me put her in the ground November 21
And sometimes later at night, I sit at our bedroom window
Wishin I was somewhere with her
Just waitin for the wind to blow us,

Down that highway
It’s takin me away from home
Down that highway
The only place feel alone
Down that highway
Feels like its got no end
Down that highway
The white line is your only friend

Down that highway
Down that highway
