The road is straight and narrow Her heart's in overdrive as she flies away High away from the ground Her eyes are black and empty, and the nights are all the same Has she lost control, sells her soul For a ticket to the candy store Caught inside the devil's open door Highway to the morning sun she rides White lightning controls her every stride Highway to the morning sun she rides All the way to the gates of hell she flies Another downhill racer 4 am comes knockin' She'll find a sleazy boy with a wired eye to keep her high on His cloud She'll spread her wings for saviour and feed her tired heart But it doesn't last, it goes so fast And she's runnin' to the candy store Caught inside the devil's revolving door Highway to the morning sun she rides White lightning controls her every stride Highway to the morning sun she rides All the way to the gates of hell she slides Another downhill racer Can she turn around and face the light Will she ever make it home tonight Highway to the morning sun she rides White lightning controls her every stride Highway to the morning sun she rides All the way to the gates of hell she slides Like a downhill racer Downhill racer Downhill racer
