I was born down in San Antone, daddy'd leave us all alone,
     G                           A                   D
Big rig rollin' thunder on the Dallas bound highway home.
   
Well momma got a job and she worked real hard.
         G                  
She had two of us kids in a trashed out car, yeah,
    A                                          D
But me and my brother seems to get along just fine.

                         A                  G                  D
Yeah, and you know the highway just like a river keeps rollin' on.
              A                 G                 D
You know it's my way and I was born to sing this song.
 G       A    G        A              G     A                    D
Have no fear, I ain't goin' nowhere. Everything's gonna be just fine.

Well I turn on the tv on Sunday afternoon. 
        G           
This preacher was screamin', "Boy, you're gonna meet your doom
 A                                                     D
Goin' to all them honky tonks and drink that ice cold beer."
         
But I've got me some friends and we're real tight.
             G           
We stay up drinkin' and talkin' in the middle of the night.
                A                                          D
We talk about Jesus, man, I tell ya, He's one pretty cool dude.

                         A                  G                  D

Well lately I've been toyin' with the notion,
     G
Of settin' my wheels in motion.
      A                                       D
Just put me on the highway to see what I can see.

And then you come in cryin', you were bitchin' at me.
                 G
You said, "Your baby or the highway. What's it gonna be?"
                A
I said, "Well maybe you don't get it. It's a nature of the business,
                       D
I'm about to be movin' on."

                         A                  G                  D
