Under the Spell of Highway One

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I got this big rig rollin' down Highway One Headin' south from the Northern Queensland sun I got a woman playin' on my mind I'm in a mess and there's just no time To think about things and the way it might have been The white line cast its deadly spell on me I need some strong black coffee and a bite to eat Been on the road since late last week I really need a good night's sleep And maybe I'll begin to understand [Chorus] Slippin' under the spell of the highway I feel I'm gonna go under I feel like a man who's on the run Slippin' under the spell of the highway My heart is beatin' like thunder Slippin' under the spell of Highway One [Verse 2] Been pushing this old rig more than I should I'd give the game away if only I could I've got a king sized overdraft and a woman who haunts me from the past And I'm beginnin' to wonder if it's all worthwhile Gotta get this load in right on time I can't afford to lose this contract of mine I'm praying this old rig will last I'm losing concentration fast And if tomorrow ever comes it won't be too late [Chorus] Slippin' under the spell of the highway I feel I'm gonna go under I feel like a man who's on the run Slippin' under the spell of the highway My heart is beatin' like thunder Slippin' under the spell of Highway One [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] Slippin' under the spell of the highway I feel I'm gonna go under I feel like a man who's on the run Slippin' under the spell of the highway My heart is beatin' like thunder Slippin' under the spell of Highway One [Outro] Slippin' under the spell of Highway One
