Tragically Hip - Highway Girl lyrics

rate me

I'm going down to see my highway girl

She just came back from around the world

I'm gonna get me a gun, I'm gonna stand on

guard

In a little white booth in her front yard.

Throwing rocks at her window what could

she do

If you throw enough rocks one might break

through

Well she looked out her window when the

police came

To see a big tin man dancing in the rain.

Oh my little highway girl

Oh my little highway girl

She said, Don't you think babe you push a

bit too fast

I said, Slowing down don't make it last

And a memory's never gonna set you free

Go out and see that world and bring it home

to me.

Oh my little highway girl

Oh my little highway girl

Oh my little highway girl

Oh my little highway girl
