Gillian Welch - I Dream a Highway lyrics
Oh I dream a highway back to you love A winding ribbon with a band of gold A silver vision come and rest my soul I dream a highway back to you John he's kicking out the footlights The Grand Ole Opry's got a brand new band Lord, let me die with a hammer in my hand I dream a highway back to you.

I wish you knew me, Jack of Diamonds Fire-riding, wheeling when I lead em up Drank whisky with my water, sugar in my tea My sails in rags with the staggers and the jags I dream a highway back to you. Oh I dream a highway back to you love A winding ribbon with a band of gold A silver vision come molest my soul I dream a highway back to you. Now give me some of what you're having I'll take you as a viper into my head A knife into my bed, arsenic when I'm fed I dream a highway back to you. Hang overhead from all directions Radiation from the porcelain ligh |
