Barbara Mandrell – Fast Lanes And Country Roads lyrics

Album: Greatest Hits

theres a eight line highway out in L.A. headed nowhere
every day is a rat race their fightin' for first place it's like a nightmare
it's a life of mass confusion its a heavy load
I'm ready to trade the fast lane for a country road
theres a new york skyline
but theres no sunshine down on broadway
watching the stocks rise
keeps them paralized up on parkplace
its a 5th avanue elusioin diggin' for the gold
I'm ready to trade the fast lane for a country road

I'm gonna take a turn for the better
it's been a long hard ride
this can't go on forever
I need a sunday driveeeeeeeee.......
Let me get behind the wheel before I lose control
and trade this fast lane for a country road

theres a desert sunset
I haven't seen yet
just out of tuscon
down in hotsprings arkansa
you can get an overhaul
I sure could use one
I'm gonna ride the bus to madness
then I'll be layin low
I'm ready to trade the fast lane for a country road

I'm gonna take a turn for the better
it's been a long hard ride
this can't go on forever
I need a sunday driveeeeeeeee.......
Let me get behind the wheel before I lose control
and trade this fast lane for a country road

come on get out of the fast lane
get on a country road

no more fast lanes

get me a country road

(background singers start at the)
( same time as lead sings line above)
no more fast lanes
get on a country road
(fade out)
get out of the fast lane
get on a country road
get out of the fast lane
