Stretch Of The Highway

Lyrics

I was born singing yes I am
 Grew up some kind of travelin' man
 Sunday morning, pack my things
 Say so long sweet potato
 I'm on the road again
 Oh it's a lovely stretch of the highway
 Leading me on
 And my favorite thing is to miss my home
 When I'm gone, soon as I'm gone
 Chi-Town baby, that's my town too
 People pick it right on up, do the looma lamaloo
 Just for example, look at ye yonder
 Chicago's got the finest high-test first-class
 Poontang anywhere
 Oh, it's a lovely stretch of the highway
 Leading me on
 And my favorite thing is to miss my home
 When I'm gone, soon as I'm gone
 I want to thank the man that planed the land
 I want to thank the man that towed the load
 In the burning sun and the freezing cold
 I want to thank the man that made this road
 ♪
 Eisenhower
 Mr. Dwight D
 General Motors
 Big Ol' GMC
 They saw the future
 Yes, indeed
 Eternal combustion
 That's what the country's gonna need
 Oh, it's a lovely stretch of the highway
 Leading me on
 And my favorite thing is to miss my home
 When I'm gone
 When I'm gone
 Someday
 Tomorrow
 Same as today
 One more time
 Mama that's ok
 Shake your head "Yes"
 Shake your head "No"
 Keep it straight and level
 And steady as she goes
 Steady as she goes
 I'm gonna ride around
 I wanna thank the man
 Steady as she goes
 I wanna thank the man
 I wanna thank the man
