(Chorus - Live at the Grand only)
I just left her standing there
Tangled thoughts and tangled hair
Baby blue eyed cries for me
Cuz she don't really wanna see me leave
When she just met me
Soon I'll be hightailin' I-90
We've been soulmates from the start
Gentle spirits, heart to heart
Moonlight lovers in the dark
Lyin' on the lawn and makin' sparks
And the makin's lovely
Soon I'll be hightailin' I-90
There'll be construction on the way
A summer job with a decent pay
Fillin' holes along the road
I've done things I ain't never told
Don't tell nobody
Soon I'll be hightailin' I-90
Chorus:
I-90's soothin' me
It's movin' me to be a better man
This highway's givin' me
The time to be, to understand
Now that all my work's been done
I'll seek the warmth of summer sun
With a twisted heart and itchy feet
I'm a headin' home to make ends meet
And ditch this quandry
Soon I'll be hightailin' I-90
What's to say this crazy clown
Who lifts one up and lets the other one down
Don't feel bad for all his tricks
It weighs on his mind like a load of bricks
He don't take it lightly
Soon I'll be hightailin' I-90
And so let the full moon rise again
Minnesota gal to be my friend
I'll be back to play this song
'Cuz a while on the road can make you stronger
Ever so slightly
Soon I'll be hightailin' I-90
Soon I'll be hightailin' I-90
Soon I'll be hightailin' I-90
