Fast Lanes And Country Roads - Barbara Mandrell

作词：Roger Murrah/Steve Dean

作曲：Roger Murrah/Steve Dean

There's an eight lane highway out in L A

Headed nowhere

Every day is a rat race

they're fighting for first place

It's like a nightmare

It's a life of mass confusion it's a heavy load

I'm ready to trade the fast lane

for a country road

There's a New York skyline

but there's no sunshine

Down on Broadway

Watching the stocks rise

keeps them paralyzed

Up on park place

It's a 5th avenue elusion

digging for the gold

I'm ready to trade the fast lane

for a country road

I'm gonna take a turn for the better

It's been a long hard ride

This can't go on forever

I need a Sunday drive

Let me get behind the wheel

before I lose control

And trade this fast lane

for a country road

There's a desert sunset

I haven't seen yet

Just out of Tucson

Down in hot springs

Arkansas you can get an overhaul

I sure could use one

I'm gonna rise above the madness

Then I'll be laying low

I'm ready to trade the fast lane

for a country road

I'm gonna take a turn for the better

It's been a long hard ride

This can't go on forever

I need a Sunday drive

And let me get behind the wheel

before I lose control

And trade this fast lane

for a country road

Come on get out of the fast lane

No more fast lanes

I take a country road
