Fast Lanes And Country Roads Lyrics - Barbara Mandrell

There's an eight lane highway out in L.A. 

Headed nowhere 

Every day is a rat race, they're fighting for first place 

It's like a nightmare 

It's a life of mass confusion, it's a heavy load 

I'm ready to trade the fast lane for a country road 

There's a New York skyline but there's no sunshine 

Down on Broadway 

Watching the stocks rise keeps them paralyzed 

Up on park place 

It's a 5th Avenue elusion digging for the gold 

I'm ready to trade the fast lane for a country road

I'm gonna take a turn for the better 

It's been a long hard ride 

This can't go on forever 

I need a Sunday drive 

Let me get behind the wheel before I lose control 

And trade this fast lane for a country road 

There's a desert sunset I haven't seen yet 

Just out of Tuscon 

Down in hot springs Arkansas, you can get an overhaul 

I sure could use one 

I'm gonna rise above the madness then I'll be laying low 

I'm ready to trade the fast lane for a country road 

I'm gonna take a turn for the better 

It's been a long hard ride 

This can't go on forever 

I need a Sunday drive

And trade this fast lane for a country road 

Come on, get out of the fast lane, get on a country road 

No more fast lanes, get me a country road 

(Get out of the fast lane, get on a country road 

Get out of the fast lane, get on a country road, get out of the fast lane)
