V1

Come on sweet highway, carry me away

Stretch on for miles to where the night meets the day

Some on sweet angels, fly over my car

Wrap me in safety as I outrun these stars

Chorus

Oh I woke up this evening

And I realized that this will not last

So I kissed him while he was sleepin'

Now I'm drivin' away from the past

Oh I'm driving' away from the past

V2

Come on sweet rearview, don't let me look back

May the things left behind me slowly fade into black

Sweet California, you're callin' my name

I thought I loved that Texas boy but to him it's all a game

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

And I wondered if my car would make it over the Grapevine

And I almost drifted off when I left Bakersfield behind

And Visalia's just a few more miles up highway 99

I'll get a goodnight sleep at Grandma's house

And see what mornin' finds…

(Repeat Chorus)
