Whoa, ooh
Whoa, ooh

When I'm lookin' in a mirror
I see a man on fire
Am I, a radio poet or a barroom liar?
If I put my guitar down, would I disappear?
Move back to my hometown
Would you still be here?

I sing about highways and worlds turnin' sideways
Goodbyes and driveways and love that don't die (whoa)
I sing about leavin', gettin' drunk on a feelin'
Make 'em believe it'll all be alright
But whoa, oh, oh
When the rhinestones fade and the world moves on
Whoa, oh, oh
Will you love the man or the song?

Yeah, I know it's been a long road
In and out of tune
But I can do it with my eyes closed
Some nights I do
Every star's gotta burn out
I wonder if you know it's not who I am
It's just what I do

I sing about highways and worlds turnin' sideways
Goodbyes and driveways and love that don't die (whoa)
I sing about leavin', gettin' drunk on a feelin'
Make 'em believe it'll all be alright
But whoa, oh, oh
When the rhinestones fade and the world moves on
Whoa, oh, oh
Will you love the man or the song?

That I wrote
That echoes through the rafters
Will you still dance to it?
Will it even matter?
I sing about highways
I sing about you

I sing about highways and worlds turnin' sideways
Goodbyes and driveways and love that don't die (whoa)
I sing about leavin', gettin' drunk on a feelin'
Make 'em believe it'll all be alright
But whoa, oh, oh
When the rhinestones fade and the world moves on
Whoa, oh, oh
Will you love the man or the song?

Am I the man or the song?
