White Line In The Sun

Pegi Young


Whoa and I get so tired 
See the white line in the sun 
That old blacktop burns my feet 
Riding patient on my thumb 

Daybreak, it hits my forehead 
Wipe the sleepies from my eyes 
Sit up and greet 
The new dawn, new dawn 
It's the morning, time to rise 

Whoa and there ain't no hurry 
Ain't no place you gotta be 
No such thing as time out there 
Just the road, the cars and me 

I've seen both the mighty oceans 
Felt their sand beneath my feet 
I've shivered in the cold night 
And I've sweltered in the heat 

Shared times with lots of people 
Been a friend to every one 
Where I lay my head at night 
In blackness it's all the same 

Whoa, the long, long highway 
Always one more bend 
Take me round the corner 
Oh, you are my friend 

Sometimes I start to wonder 
Where this road is leading to 
You can wander worlds 
Forever and ever 
And never never be through 

Whoa the long long highway 
See the white line in the sun 
That old blacktop burns my feet 
Riding patient on my thumb
