Highways, Heartaches, & Honky-Tonks   MP3 Excerpt
Brian Burns - (C)opr. 1997 - Brian Burns Music (BMI)

Every night I lay it on the line in some old smoky bar,
got a beat up truck, a ramblin’ heart, and a worn out old guitar.
From the bright lights and big cities to the one-horse town cafe,
I don’t know where I’m going, so I never lose my way.

CHORUS:

I’ve got highways, heartaches, & honky-tonks,
I live just the way I want and never ask why.
I’ve got highways, heartaches, & honky-tonks,
but I’m too old to turn back now and too young to die.

Well, the one I loved, she just gave up, I guess she couldn’t see
that music’s not a choice I made, I believe the choice made me.
Now there’s Jesus on a billboard sign telling me my time has come,
but is it Heaven that he’s pointing toward, or Highway 81?

REPEAT CHORUS
