1
Well these diamonds on my windshield
2
And these tears from heaven
3
Well I'm pulling into town on the Interstate
4
I got a steel train in the rain
5
And the wind bites my cheek through the wing
6
And it's these late nights and this freeway flying
7
It always makes me sing
8
There's a Duster tryin' to change my tune
9
He's pulling up fast on the right
10
Rolling restlessly by a twenty-four hour moon
11
And a Wisconsin hiker with a cue-ball head
12
He's wishing he was home in a Wiscosin bed
13
But there's fifteen feet of snow in the East
14
Colder then a welldigger's ass
15
And it's colder than a welldigger's ass
16
Oceanside it ends the ride with San Clemente coming up
17
Those Sunday desperadoes slip by and cruise with a dry back
18
And the orange drive-in the neon billin'
19
And the theatre's fillin' to the brim
20
With slave girls and a hot spurn bucket full of sin
21
Metropolitan area with interchange and connections
22
Fly-by-nights from Riverside
23
And out of state plates running a little late
24
But the sailors jockey for the fast lane
25
So 101 don't miss it
26
There's rolling hills and concrete fields
27
And the broken line's on your mind
28
The eights go east and the fives go north
29
And the merging nexus back and forth
30
You see your sign, cross the line, signalling with a blink
31
And the radio's gone off the air
32
Gives you time to think
33
And you hear the rumble
34
As you fumble for a cigarette
35
And blazing through this midnight jungle
36
Remember someone that you met
37
And one more block; the engine talks
38
Whispers 'home at last'
39
It whispers 'home at last'
40
Whispers 'home at last'
41
It whispers 'home at last'
42
Whispers 'home at last'
43
And there are diamonds on my windshield
44
And these tears from heaven
45
Well I'm pulling into town on the Interstate
46
I got me a steel train in the rain
47
And the wind bites my cheek through the wing
48
Late nights and freeway flying
49
Always makes me sing
50
It always makes me sing
51
