Bruce Carroll Highway Of Life Lyrics

I had been driving all night
Till my car quit working right
But no one seems too willing to stop
Seems they're all off to the races
And from the looks on their faces
Well, I'm thinking that maybe I'm better off
Better off just taking my time
Down the highway of life

He's driving 18 wheels
Dodging automobiles
He's got a picture on the dash of his cab
Too many years on the road
And now his family's all grown
And they really don't remember that much about dad
He just let his best years pass him by
Down the highway of life

Down the highway of life
There's nowhere to turn around
Down the highway of life
Love can be lost or found
So don't let it all pass you by
Down the highway of life

They come from miles around
To hear this preacher expound
About how God wants them to live
They say, "He's so entertaining" But he has trouble explaining
Why the love for his family he neglected to give
Now they've left him alone to win souls
Down this highway of life

Down the highway of life
There's nowhere to turn around
Down the highway of life
Love can be lost or found
So don't let it all pass you by
Down the highway of life

There's a danger in loving our dreams
More than the things that matter
Till one day, we look up to see
The priceless gifts in life have scattered

Down the highway of life
There's nowhere to turn around
Down the highway of life
Love can be lost or found
So don't let it all pass you by
No, don't let it all pass you by
Down the highway of life

(Oh-whoa...)
Down that highway
Down that highway
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh...)
Down that highway
