George Strait - Brothers of the Highway lyrics

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

Brothers of the highway, children of the wind
That Detroit diesel pirate ship
Goes blowing out again
Sailing towards that setting sun
Freedom's their best friend
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind

He puts the pedal to the metal
Trying to out run the rain
Another shot of truck stop coffee
Goes running through his veins
This world turns on eighteen wheels
Thank god we can depend on

Brothers of the highway, children of the wind
That Detroit diesel pirate ship
Goes blowing out again
Sailing towards that setting sun
Freedom's their 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
Tallahassee north to Boston, up to Bangor
West to Austin
Coast to coast sea to sea, sail on, sail on

You brothers of the highway
Children of the wind
That Detroit diesel pirate ship
Goes blowing out again
Sailing towards that setting sun
Freedom's their best friend
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind
God bless you brothers of the highway
Children of the wind
