INTRO: VERSE So the highway is where I believe I belong Losing myself in the soul of a song And the fight for the right to be righteously wrong In a story that’s sad but it’s true So I sing my own songs and I drink when I’m thirsty   And I will go on making music and whiskey And love for as long as the spirit inside me   Says you don’t tell me what to do Gone are the reasons for changing my mind Gone with the future that I left behind If you want to I warn you you’re wasting your time You don’t tell me what to do SOLO: Gone are the reasons for changing my mind Gone with the future that I left behind If you want to I warn you you’re wasting your time You don’t tell me what to do You don’t tell me what to do
