Intro: | | x4 My car’s in for a brake job Be ready in a while   Something about the waitress Made me think about your smile             I tip her a ten spot   And I try to read her name          I’m just an old long hauler   A grinder at the game                Heaven knows the highways Since we’ve been apart   But my heart don’t feel like leaving Or you won’t leave my heart       Now and then I might  take A little something for pain          But there’s nothing much for heartache      And my heart has never changed   My heart has never changed             | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now there’s no more rough and tumble Down Highway 199   Nothing lasts forever I just miss it sometimes She comes to pour more coffee   But it’s time to see more world   I pick up my check and keys And go and pay the girl     My mind’s in Hell’s Half Acre    And the rooms along Exchange          And the scenes are always shifting     But my heart has never changed             My heart has never changed             | | | |
