Brothers of the Highway - George Strait
Diamonds on the windshield, as heaven starts to cry,
In his rear view mirrors, his angel waves goodbye,
She knows he's got to go, she knows he's one of them,

Sailing for that setting sun, freedoms your best friend,
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind.

Another shot of truck stop coffee, goes running through his veins,

Brothers of the highway, children of the wind,
That Detroit Diesel Pirate ship goes rolling out again,
Sailing for that setting sun, freedoms your best friend,
Brothers of the highway, children of the wind.
