Mama knows the highway by the songs When she hears a good one, she always sings along She don't ever worry 'bout what's gone She says, 'good country music will never steer you wrong She talks to the truckers with her lights Maybe just a little bit more on Saturday nights She knows a good road to paradise And that's just enough to keep the highway bright Yeah,Mama knows the highway now by heart She can see the rain before it starts Looking clear through a windshield full of stars Mama knows the highway now by heart She can tell Wyoming by the wind She can tell another trucker by the rig that he's in She knows how to watch the river bends She knows where the real South begins Well, Mama knows the highway now by heart She can see the rain before it starts Looking clear through a windshield full of stars Mama knows the highway now by heart She can gauge a cafe just by looking at the sign Little old places always share the grand design Mama knows the highway now by heart She can see the rain before it starts Looking clear through a windshield full of stars Mama knows the highway now by heart Mama knows the highway now by heart Mama knows the highway, yeah, yeah yeah
