Our Lady Of The Highways Songtext

I'm here in Philadelphia She got caught down in DC It's a wretched night, it's raining But she's coming up to meet me There's nothing I can do By the time she gets halfway She'll be tired of 95 The spray off those trucks sucks I hope she gets through alive Our Lady of the Highways Keep my baby straight tonight Guide her safely down the road Keep her always in the light Let the sad moon looking down on me Shine bright as she comes here 'Til Our Lady of the Highways May appear Sometimes the weather's worst When you have some place to be Like the time we drove to Boston In the snow from New York City Frozen to the bone And we saw the planes fly high above On metal wings and prayers And tried to find some radio Hoping one day we would be there Our Lady of the Highways Keep my baby straight tonight Guide her safely down the road Keep her always in the light Let the sad moon looking down on me Shine bright as she comes here 'Til Our Lady of the Highways May appear And I guess she always gets here Heaven knows just how she does And that statue of our Lady Is crying tears of love Now I'm in San Francisco A town too hard for love She's driving from Seattle 800 miles above me Why are we apart? So please don't let the fog roll Heavy on that Highway 5 I want her here so soon But I want her here alive Our Lady of the Highways Keep my baby straight tonight Guide her safely down the road Keep her always in the light Let the sad moon looking down on me Shine bright as she comes here 'Til Our Lady of the Highways May appear
