I Dream A Highway by Gillian Welch


Oh I dream a highway back to you Love

A winding ribbon with a band of gold

A silver vision come and rest my soul

I dream a highway back to you

 

Johnny's kickin' out the footlights

The Grand Ole Opry's got a brand new band

Lord let me die with a hammer in my hand

I dream a highway back to you

 

I think I'll move down into Memphis

And thank the hatchetman who forked my tongue

I'll lie and wait until the wagons come

And dream a highway back to you

 

The getaway kickin' up cinders

An empty wagon full of rattlin' bones

Moon in the mirror on a three-hour jones

I dream a highway back to you

 

Oh I dream a highway back to you Love

A windin' ribbon with a band of gold

A silver vison come arrest my soul

I dream a highway back to you

 

Which lover are you Jack of Diamonds

Now you be Emmylou and I'll be Gram

I send a letter don't know who I am

I dream a highway back to you

I'm an indisguisable shade of twilight

Any second now I'm gonna turn myself on

In the blue display of the cool cathode ray

I dream a highway back to you

 

I wish you knew me Jack of Diamonds

Fire-ridin' wheelin' when I lead 'em up

Drank whiskey with my water sugar with my tea

My sails in rags with the staggers and the jags

I dream a highway back to you

 

Oh I dream a highway back to you Love

A windin' ribbon with a band of gold

A silver vison come molest my soul

I dream a highway back to you

 

Now give me some of what you're havin'

I'll take you as a viper into my head

A knife into my bed arsenic when I'm fed

I dream a highway back to you

 

Hang overhead from all directions

Radiation from the porcelain light

Blind and blistered by the mornin' white

I dream a highway back to you

 

Sunday mornin' at the diner

Hollywood trembles on the verge of tears

I watched the waitress for a thousand years

Saw a wheel inside a wheel heard a call within a call

I dreamed a highway back to you

 

Oh I dream a highway back to you Love

A windin' ribbon with a band of gold

A silver vison convalesced my soul

I dream a highway back to you

 

Step into the light poor Lazarus

Don't lie alone behind the window shade

Let me see the mark death made

I dream a highway back to you

I dream a highway back to you

 

What will sustain us through the winter

Where did last year's lessons go

Walk me out into the rain and snow

I dream a highway back to you

 

Oh I dream a highway back to you Love

A windin' ribbon with a band of gold

A silver vison come and bless my soul

I dream a highway back to you

I dream a highway back to you

 

Oh I dream a highway back to you Love

A windin' ribbon with a band of gold

A silver vison come and bless my soul

I dream a highway back to you
