Lyrics The Tragically Hip

The Tragically Hip

Highway Girl

Well, I'm going down to see my highway girl

Yeah, she just came back from around the world

I'm going to get me a gun, I'm going to stand on guard

In a little white booth in her front yard

Throwing rocks at her window, what could she do?

If you throw enough rocks one might break through

Well, she looked out her window when the police came

Yeah, to see a big tin man dancing in the rain

Oh my little highway girl

Oh my little highway girl

Don't you think, babe, you push a bit too fast?

I said slowing down don't make it last

Yeah, she said a memory will never set you free

Go out and see that world and bring it home to me

Oh my little highway girl

All I have, all I want

Oh my little highway girl

Baby, baby, come on home, come on home

My little highway girl

Oh my little highway girl
