Strait, George - Brothers Of The Highway Lyrics

Diamonds on the windshield, as heaven starts to cry
In his rearview mirror, his angel waves goodbye
She knows he's got to go, she knows he's one of them

Brothers of the highway, children of the wind
That Detroit diesel pirate ship goes rollin' out again
Sailin' for the settin' sun, freedom's your best friend
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind

He puts the peddle to the metal, trying to out run the rain
Another shot of truck stop coffee, goes runnin' through his veins
This country turns on eighteen wheels, thank God we can depend, on

Brothers of the highway, children of the wind
That Detroit diesel pirate ship goes rollin' out again
Sailin' for the settin' sun, freedom's your best friend
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind

Carolina west to Denver
Baton Rouge east to Pittsburgh
Portland south to San Diego
Sail on sail on
Tallahassee north to Boston
Up to Bangor west to Austin
Coast to coast. Sea to sea

Brothers of the highway, children of the wind
That Detroit diesel pirate ship goes rollin' out again
Sailin' for the settin' sun, freedom's your best friend
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind

God bless you brothers of the highway, children of the wind
