Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse 1] Hmmm, hmmm, Now I've been in wrecking yards, When it's hit me really hard, Cause I've had some close shaves, In my truck driving days, But the worst one of all, Was when I made that call, To the girl I left at home, She's scared and all alone, [Chorus] Ohhhh, ohhhh, They were here yesterday, But are gone today, Lord keep them safe, On heaven's highway, HEAVEN'S HIGHWAY. [Verse 2] My greatest fear of them all, Was to make that emergency call, Not knowing what to do, When that nightmare comes true, Now we have all lost a mate, We have gotten there a little late, [Chorus] [Instrumental interlude] [Bridge] But still we do this job, Cause it's what we love, Being out on the road, Hauling another load, Till we get to see them again, We'll take your loads my friend, [Chorus] [Outro] Cause this isn't just a job, This is our way of life, OHHHH, OHHHH, Lord please keep them safe, On heaven's highway, OHHHH, OHHHH, HEAVEN'S HIGHWAY. [Fade to end]
