Out On The Highway

We've been across Nebraska
I was thinking
of Johnny, Patti and Mike
I was looking out at those fields
thinking of how they lived
on the edge of a knife
Dylan came on the radio
was it music or was it sex
There were times when
I was thinking
to die was probably best
Out on the highway
we relied on each other then
But it seems like we could
never make the turn
on that last bend
We headed homeward
driving down the I-10
I didn't know how long
it would seem since then
I didn't know how long
I would live since then
