Aaron Tippin - Prisoner of the Highway lyrics

Diesel power, eighteen wheels to rollin' As I pull it on to the interstate I've got thirteen hours to make my destination And I don't want to stop to check my weight Won't be no sleep for me tonight, no Gotta be hittin' Tulsa by first mornin' light Call me a prisoner of the highway Driven on by my restless soul I'm a prisoner of the highway Imprisoned by the freedom of the road, yeah I've run freight out of Wheeling West Virginia And U.S. Steel from Bethlehem And I've rolled tobacco out of the Carolinas California winds into Birmingham Some people work just to survive But up here in this cab Is the only time I'm alive I'm a prisoner of the highway Driven on by my restless soul Call me a prisoner of the highway Imprisoned by the freedom of the road, yeah I've got a wife livin' back in Tennessee Ronnie, she tries to understand the way I feel (Lord, have mercy) Now I could give my hand to another line of work But my heart would always be behind the wheel Call me a prisoner of the highway Driven on by my restless soul I'm a prisoner of the highway Imprisoned by the freedom of the road, yeah Don't ya know I'm a prisoner of the highway Driven on by my restless soul Call me a prisoner of the highway Imprisoned by the freedom of the road, yeah We're prisoners of the highway (that's right) Imprisoned by the freedom of the road Yeah, we are prisoners of the highway (one more time) Imprisoned by the freedom of the road
