HIGHWAY TO YOUR SOUL


WORDS & MUSIC: HANK “HOLY ROLLER” RAY
ROOF MUSIC / WARNER CHAPPELL, 1990


There is a highway…I’m moving on

 

It’s the cold and wild way…to your soul…to your soul…to your soul

 

All the feelings that I’ve known hardly can compare
To the strange feeling that I get when you are not there

 

I hope some day we’ll end up in our private heaven’s high
But ‘til then I roam my mind to find the gate to paradise

 

Here I am praying on my knees for the light to shine
Here I am praying on my knees for the light to guide me
On this strange and rocky road through the valleys of cries
And the mountains of happiness I’m passing on my way

 

I’m looking for the key to open the door

 

Open the door to your heart
Down I go that desperate road
Called the highway
Called the highway
Called the highway to your soul…to your soul

 

I go and call you ‘voodoo’, ‘cause you put a spell on me
I go and call you lightning’s girl, because inside of me
You light the flame of desire…put out by stormwaves of water
Now I want to caress then again I’d love to slaughter - you

 

I’m looking for the key to open the door
Open the door to your heart
Down I go that desperate road
Called the highway
Called the highway
Called the highway to your soul…to your soul

 

Killing cells there in my brain’s like dying on thunder road
I’ve smoked so many cigarettes…my lungs are black as coal
I guess that I’m the one to blame for tearing us apart
I’m twisted in confusion…so let’s try a brand new start

 

I’m looking for the key to open the door
Open the door to your heart
Down I go that desperate road
Called the highway
Called the highway
Called the highway to your soul…to your soul
