The Highway is humming

Well I’m ridin’ down a dusty trail,
Heart’s a‑beat like a freight train’s rail,
Got a song in my pocket, a story to tell,
Let’s spin that vinyl, let the chorus swell.

Mama’s kitchen, coffee black as night,
Daddy’s laugh echoin’ through the porch light,
Boots on the floor, a fiddle’s sigh,
We’re chasin’ dreams ’neath a western sky.

Midnight road, headlights cut the haze,
Radio hums a love that never fades,
A lone coyote sings a mournful tune,
While I’m humming to the rising moon.

Old truck’s rusted, but the engine roars,
Every mile’s a memory of yesteryears,
A broken heart’s a scar that never heals,
But whiskey’s sweet, and the night feels real.

Oh, the highway’s humming and the night is wide,
We’re chasing sunsets with a steel‑guitar ride.
Got a love that’s steady, a heart that won’t quit,
So raise your glass high—this country’s our lit.
[Repeat chorus]

Barroom doors swing, the band starts to play,
Two step shuffle, we’re swayin’ all day,
A girl in a dress, boots polished bright,
She steals my soul with a soft “good night”.

Dawn breaks slow over the prairie line,
Coffee’s gone cold, but the fire’s still fine,
I write these verses on a worn‑out page,
Hope they find a home on a country stage.

Life’s a highway, a winding, dusty road,
We pick up the pieces, wear the heavy load,
But with a steel‑string chorus and a steady beat,
We keep on moving, never feel defeat.

Oh, the highway’s humming and the night is wide,
We’re chasing sunsets with a steel‑guitar ride.
Got a love that’s steady, a heart that won’t quit,
So raise your glass high—this country’s our lit.

So here’s to the road, the love, the song,
May your heart stay wild, your spirit stay strong.
Till we meet again where the rivers flow,
Keep that country soul, let it always glow.
