Old 30 Lyrics

Old 30 lyrics

She was mud and sand and concrete 
Mixed with water made a' tears 
From the rivers runnin' down the Great Divide 
She was three thousand miles 
Of rockin', rollin' highway 
A million mem'ries long and two lanes wide  
 
Far across the wide Missouri 
To the ol' Wyomin' line 
From the Jersey shore to San Francisco Bay 
She was known to all the truckers 
As the mighty Lincoln Highway 
But to me, she's still Old 30 all the way  
 
Now the Interstate goes screamin' through the backyard of her life 
But it just don't send those shivers down my spine 
So before I take that exit  
To the Highway In The Sky 
I'm gonna take Old 30 one more time  
 
She was radiators boilin' 
In the burnin' summer sun 
And a blizzard blowin' wild across the plains 
She was tumbleweeds a-rollin' 
In the gentle winds of Fall 
And the lights of old Grand Island in the rain  
 
She was mud and sand and concrete 
Mixed with water made a' tears 
From the rivers runnin' down the Great Divide 
She was three thousand miles 
Of rockin', rollin' highway 
A million mem'ries long and two lanes wide  
 
Now the Interstate goes screamin' through the backyard of her life 
But it just don't send those shivers down my spine 
So before I take that exit  
To the Highway In The Sky 
I'm gonna take Old 30 one more time  
 
One more time
