Mama knows the highway
by the songs
When she hears a good one
she always sings along
She don't ever worry 'bout
what's gone
She says
good country music
will never steer you wrong
She talks to the truckers
with her lights
Maybe just a little bit more
on Saturday night
She knows a good road
to paradise
And that's just enough
to keep the highway bright
Yeah mama knows
the highway now by heart
She can see the rain
before it starts
And lookin' clear through
a windshield full of stars
Mama knows the highway
now by heart
She can tell Wyoming
by the wind
She can tell another trucker
by the rig that he's in
She knows how to watch
the river bend
She knows where
the real south begins
Well Mama knows
the highway now by heart
She can see the rain
before it starts
And lookin' clear through
a windshield full of stars
Mama knows the highway
now by heart
She can gauge a cafe
just by lookin' at the sign
Little old places always
share the grand design
Mama knows
the highway now by heart
She can see the rain
before it starts
And lookin' clear through
a windshield full of stars
Mama knows the highway
now by heart
Mama knows the highway
now by heart
Mama knows the highway
Yeah yeah yeah
