(Michael Reynolds)

Put on your high heel shoes
And that brand new dress you found
Baby let’s go into town
We can take my dad’s old Dodge
I’ve already bought the gas
To get us there and back

We may never get ahead
But we don’t have to move so slow
We can take the fastest lane
Down the longest road

You say this place has got you down
And there’s nothing here to do
Oh but baby that’s not true
We can hear the alley cat choir
Watch the parade of empty fields
Life is a circus spinning right at our heels

We may never get ahead
But we don’t have to move so slow
We can take the fastest lane
Down the longest road

Before this quarter moon is spent
We’ll let these razor high beam lights
Cut us a slice of Friday night
But baby don’t you act so shy
Slide over close to me
We won’t always feel this free yeah, yeah

We may never get ahead
But we don’t have to move so slow
We can take the fastest lane
Down the longest road
Baby down the longest road
Baby down the longest road
