Sleeping in a Walmart parking lot take my shower in the bathroom sink
Find the next venue on Google maps try to wait til the evening to drink
I gotta love this life cause it’s the life I chose
For better or worse, no worse for the ware and it shows
Broke down under the overpass downtown Buffalo
A soul-patched man with a really loud van pushed us where we needed to go
I rely on the kindness of strangers and strange kinds of friends
The rubber hit down hard on the pavement the night she said,
Chorus
she said, “my way or the highway”, now I’m out here on this road
writing songs about being lonely, and singing them for lonely folks
they tell me that they love me, but I’m pretty sure they don’t
she said, “my way or the highway” and I chose the road
Trading blows with the lake effect snow learning how to know when I’m beat
This all feels a little like a whiskey on a stick hanging out in front of me
I knew I’d miss her but I soon came to see
I could never miss her as much as I’d miss me
Chorus
she said, “my way or the highway”, so I’m out here on this road
writing songs about being lonely, and sharing them with lovely folks
I chose the road less traveled and the difference here is hope
“my way or the highway” and I chose the road
