Words and Music by Michael Reynolds
Put on your high heel shoes
And that brand new dress you found
Baby letÆs go into town
We can take my dadÆs old Dodge
IÆve already bought the gas
To get us there and back
We may never get ahead
But we donÆt have to move so slow
We can take the fastest lane
Down the longest road
You say this place has got you down
And thereÆs nothing here to do
Oh but baby thatÆs not true
We can hear the alley cat choir
Watch the parade of empty fields
Life is a circus spinning right at our heels
We may never get ahead
But we donÆt have to move so slow
We can take the fastest lane
Down the longest road
Before this quarter moon is spent
WeÆll let these razor high beam lights
Cut us a slice of Friday night
But baby donÆt you act so shy
Slide over close to me
We wonÆt always feel this free yeah, yeah
We may never get ahead
But we donÆt have to move so slow
We can take the fastest lane
Down the longest road
Baby down the longest road
Baby down the longest road
