Highway Queen Lyrics - Nikki Lane

Well I heard tell of a woman out there 

With tight blue jeans and long black hair 

She'll come to play but she won't stay 

And it always brings 'em down 

Some folks say there will come a day 

When she'll settle in some old town 

But as best you know this long, long road 

She ain't gonna come around 

Sixty thousand miles of blacktop 

Countless broken hearts between 

Winding lies and wide but don't stop 

Living the life of the highway queen 

She's decided, leaves your party 

Haunts your mind like a melody 

You can tie her down with a Marlboro Light 

But the highway queen don't need no king 

Well one or two, they might have broken through 

They might have nearly roped her in 

But a fire like that is far too hot 

It's gonna burn and burn again 

Seasons fade and so does the pain 

It blows away like a like a tumbleweed 

You can't blame the girl for loving this old world 

She can't help it she's a highway queen 

Sixty thousand miles of blacktop 

Countless broken hearts between 

Winding lies and wide but don't stop 

Living the life of the highway queen 

She's decided, leaves your party 

Haunts your mind like a melody 

You can tie her down with a Marlboro Light 

But the highway queen don't need no king 

Highway queen don't need no king 

Well miles and miles she keeps on rolling 

Place your bets if you ain't folding 

Miles and miles, no sign of slowing 

It ain't who she loves, it's who she's holding 

Sixty thousand miles of blacktop 

Countless broken hearts between 

Winding lies and wide but don't stop 

Living the life of the highway queen 

She's decided, leaves your party 

Haunts your mind like a melody 

You can tie her down with a Marlboro Light 

But the highway queen don't need no king 

Highway queen don't need no king 

Highway queen don't need no king 

Well miles and miles she keeps on rolling 

Place your bets if you ain't folding 

Miles and miles, no sign of slowing 

It ain't who she loves, it's who she's holding
