the highway blues



The highway blues
The speed on the road
Everyone seems in a hurry
Life takes a back seat

The highway blues
Cars, lorries, buses
Trailers and motorbikes
Speeding along the road

CCTVs to catch the daredevils
The summons will arrive by mail
The daredevils will ignore
They don’t think they have done wrong

The highway blues
The crashes of metals
The turning turtles
The cries of the lost souls

Yet the drivers don’t listen to advice
On the road they speed like demons
The highway blues
When lives are lost

The crying will not make up the losses
Once the dead lies on the street
Leaving words of goodbye unsaid
It’s the highway blues
