Prisoner Of The Highway - Margo Price

作词：Margo Price

作曲：Margo Price

I grew where I was planted

But I never felt at home

My head was filled with questions

And my feet they long to roam

My arms reached out like branches

But my heart just couldn't stay

I left the moment that I could

A prisoner of the highway

I passed by farms and trailers

As I drove through little towns

I found trouble in the city

I never set my suitcase down

And in those empty alleys

Where retaining walls decay

I just kept a-moving

As a prisoner of the highway

Ooh and I don't know where I'm headed

Ooh and I don't know where it ends

Well the wind it felt like freedom

As it whipped through my hair

I was everywhere and everyone

I was nobody and nowhere

Oh the map was written on my hand

And in my DNA

I believe that I was meant to be

A prisoner of the highway

Had chains around my ankles

Handcuffs on my wrists

I was haunted by decisions

And simple things I missed

Dear God why do I wander

Was I born this way

And I prayed He would release me

As a prisoner of the highway

Ooh and I don't know where I'm headed

Ooh and I don't know where it ends

I sacrificed my family

Sacrificed true love

I sacrificed my unborn child

To the heavens up above

Oh there was not a limit

To those I would betray

Oh I was deep down in it

As a prisoner of the highway

I just kept a-moving

As a prisoner of the highway

Highway ooh
