Story Behind The Song

I grew up in a very remote area and left home to be in a band and traveled many years, met many people, some lost, some not and ended up returning to my roots to find myself.

Song Description

Leaving home to go out into the world to make your mark-a calling of sorts to hit the road. Looking for something and realizing that the the road always takes you home.

Lyrics

A little farm on the edge of somewhere
is from where I came.
A lot of open space and some flowers
I made up my own games

Just me and my little brother
trying to figure out who we are
I'd lie awake and wonder
what was beyond the stars
then I heard the call of something

Found myself flying southbound
heading for FLA
Another father and mothers daughter looking for to make her way

So I hit the road, shot my load and ground up my bones
I'd feel those wheels beneath me and I'd feel the rolling stone
Til' I heard the call of something
I hear the call of something

The Highway to take me home
The Highway to make me whole
Take the ride to find out what is mine
The HIghway
The Highway

I pack my bags and wander
looking for peace of mind.
Sometimes I shake my head and wonder why it's so hard to find.
Then I think about the other souls who've lost along the way.
I wonder if they'll ever find a place that they can stay
Til' they hear the call of something
they hear that call of something

The Highway to take me home
The Highway to make me whole
Take the ride to find out what is mine.

The Highway
The Highway
The Highway
The Highway
