I was running wide open

Firestones smokin' the day that I turned sixteen

I was hell-bent and reckless

Never stopped for directions

Off-track with no way back for me.

Well, they say that life is a highway

And I've put some miles on mine

More than one time, I took the wrong two-lane

Just lettin' my horses run wild.

Yeah, I got lost (yeah, I got lost)

Until I got found (until I got found)

Oh, and now that it's well with my soul

I just ride in the seat next to jesus

'cause I know he knows the way home.

Yeah, it's kinda nice

I don't have to drive

To end up where I'm supposed to go

At the end of the day

It's better this way

With a little more rock in my roll.

Well, they say that life is a highway

And I've put some miles on mine

More than one time, I took the wrong two-lane

Just lettin' my horses run wild.

Yeah, I got lost

Until I got found

Oh, and now that it's well with my soul

I just ride in the seat next to jesus

'cause I know he knows the way home

Yes, he does.

(Oh yeah)

They say that life is a highway

One day, I'll run outta road

He'll meet me out front in the driveway

And we'll roll around streets of gold.

Yeah, I got lost (yeah, I got lost)

Until I got found (until I got found)

Oh, and now that it's well with my soul

I just ride in the seat next to jesus

'cause I know he knows the way home.
