Ghost on the Highway
Words & Music by Rik Palieri
CHORUS: Ghosts on the highways, forgotten souls so it seems, Ghosts on the highways, lost in American Dreams. Sleeping with the trucks in Oklahoma, Sleeping 'neath the trees in Tennessee Wishing on a star in California, Dreaming of a home that used to be. CHORUS Please can you help me won't you mister, I need some gas for my car. My children are hungry and they're crying, With love you can only get so far. In the daytime, I'll be working, Just trying to make a little bread. In the nighttime, I'll be walking, Ain't got noplace to rest my head. CHORUS My grandpa was a miner My daddy worked in the factory. Me, I'm just a rover But it's not the life I planned for me. CHORUS
