Diamonds on the windshield,as heaven starts to cry.
In his rearview mirror, his angel waves goodbye.
She knows he's got to go, she knows he's one of them.
(Chorus)
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind.
That detroit diesel pirate ship goes rollin' out again,
Sailin for that settin' sun, freedom's your best friend.
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind.
He puts the pedel to the metal,trying to outta run the rain,
Another shot of truck stop coffee, goes runnin through his vains,
This country turns on eighteen wheels, thank god we can depend, on
(Chorus)
Brothers of the highway, children of the win.
That detroit diesel pirate ship goes rollin' out again,
Sailin for that settin' sun, freedom's your best friend.
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind.
Carolina west to Denver,
Baton Rouge east to Pittsburg,
Portland south to San Diego,
Sail on sail on,
Tallahassy north to Boston,
Up to Bangor west to Austin,
Coast to coast,sea to sea,
Sail on sail on,
[Chorus]
You brothers of the highway, children of the wind,
That detroit diesel pirate ship goes rollin' out again,
Sailin for that settin sun, freedom's your best friend,
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind.
God bless you brothers of the highway, children of the wind.
