Dear Mr. Eisenhower
Thank you for the highway system
There's a girl that I've been missing
Means the world to me
She is where my road dead ends
My exit sign, my sweet off-ramp
Windshield time of ten long hours
Heavy eyes and wishing I was cooking breakfast
Watching how her eyes turn brown to green
Coffee cup between her fingers
Last night on her face still lingers
Extra crispy, a little creamer
Honey, how'd you sleep?
We get full, go back to bed
Woke up by the rumble strips
Dear Mr. Eisenhower
Out here on your highway system
My mind goes to playing tricks
When she ain't close to me
Swear the turnpike sings her name
See her ghost in passing lanes
Do everything within my power
Speed through thunderstorms and showers
She's my side of the road wildflower
My thistle in the spring
Highway please don;t stop me now
Her warm embrace my soul devour
Take what's mine, call it ours
Take my everything
Where I'm going, where I've been
Can't compare to the love I'm in
Dear Mr. Eisenhower
Thank you for the highway system
Take me back to my sweet missus
Means the world to me
Keep her mine and true 'til then
You're highway calls me out again
Won't you keep her mine and true 'til then
You're highway calls me out again
