Freeways lyrics

You are what you are

I am what I am

Can we all come together

With some kind of plan
I want you to laugh

But you want me to cry

Can we all come together

Hey, why don't we try

Can we all come together

Can we reach across the sea

There are worlds in between us

The sky is all we see

So let's all come together

Let's all come together

Why do we like different things

You can be the life of the party

Or you can be the belle of the ball

You can break my heart if you want to

And you can make me wait for your call

I can only give you my promise

That I will always stay by your side

You can make my heart spin in circles

And I'll go along for the ride

Just for you -- just for you

Ya ya ya ya -- just for you

There are so many things I would do

When you feel like dancin'

But you're all shook out

We have found the answer

Turn yourself about
Find yourself some people

To stand out in a line

Join the ends together

Now you're doin' fine

Keep it smooth, ah

With an easy groove, oh

Keep it smooth, ah

With an easy groove, huh

Dance it in a circle

Shake your heads around

Turn it counterclockwise

Standin' in the street, shaved, I'm washed and neat

And the time is mine

But I don't even know where I'm goin'

Been too long in town, just workin' right tied down
But I got my pay

And I'm willin' to spend what I'm earnin'

Maybe over town, where the say love can be found anytime of day

I'll be lookin' you know I've been wishin'

Need a lovin' face, nice hair, some fancy lace

Drivin' in a beat up car

The highway is long but we've come so far

Two thousand miles from home
We got to find someplace that we can belong

But, we know, the freeways in life are all pointing us home

Don't you know, nothing in this life could mean anymore

Freeways, freeways

Headin' out into the sun

We've been to the stars, and we've only begun

Nothin's gonna change our mind

When the mornin' comes

You'll know by my shoes I've been out walking

If I don't return
You'll know I've found something to believe in, to believe in

Waiting for the sun

My heart will surely break if it starts raining

It's the oasis I seek

'Cause the sand of the desert makes me thirsty, makes me thirsty

Down, down we all go down

'Round, 'round we all go 'round

I met a man who bought up land

Wherever his feet would tread

He asked me to El Paso

Said I could stay on his spread

He has horses and cows and tractors and plows
And all kinds of money to burn

But how can I get to Texas

When my wheels won't turn

There was a lady from Spain

Who had a fine frame

Then she moved to Hollywood

She said come and stay for a week and a day

There was a man who owned a part of town

Approached me in his saloon and asked me to sit down

Was I unemployed or would I like a job
He said he owned the stageline and there were men who liked to rob

He offered me his daughter's hand, an advance of salary

A fancy gun, a pair of boots, and a share in the company

Now I ride shotgun on his stageline

I ride shotgun on his life
