Lyrics:

The highway bends like my lover's leg Pulls me in like a wick draws a flame She don't bother to remember my name We don't talk of such things



I'll kiss you once Baby, I'll kiss you twice But I can't kiss you for the rest of your life 'Cause I'm not fit to be the man that makes you a wife



Baby, baby its just my foolish pride



Whatever road I may go down If it bends, if it don't know how I ain't stopped since I left my home town And I can't slow down



I do what any man can to survive Work a day or maybe even night But I can't work inside for some 9-5 Honey not in this life



Whatever road I may go down If it bends, if it don't know how I ain't stopped since I left my hometown And I can't slow down



Brown bodies Bent at the waist Frozen in a field as I drive by In my own country's pace



Freedom is not a state of mind Nor is it a united state Oh, and it sure ain't my escape



Whatever road I may go down If it bends, if it don't know how I ain't stopped since I left my hometown And I can't slow down



No no no oh no



And I can't slow down



No oh no Oh, lord



And I can't slow down
