Paying Tolls On The Highway Of Love

CHORUS:
I'm paying tolls on the Highway of Love
I pay by the mile to the cashier above
Lord hear me crying like that lonesome dove
I'm doing my time I spent my last dime on the Highway of Love

I found the girl I'd always dreamed of
We started to travel down the Highway of Love
But she longed to go South, and I was headed true North
I paid at the exit when we got our divorce

CHORUS

The Highway of Love is lonesome and long
It'll tempt a young man like a sweet cheating song
The further you travel, the higher the fee
We're all paying tolls on the highway like me
