Highway Tune Lyrics
Oh, mama!
[Verse 1]
No stopping at the red light, girl
'Cause I want to get you said now
No going at the green light, girl
'Cause I want to be with you now
You are my special, you are my special
You are my midnight, midnight, yeah
[Chorus]
So sweet, so fine, so nice
Oh my, my-my, my-my, oh
[Verse 2]
No stopping on the highway, girl
'Cause I want to burn my gas
There's one girl that I know
I'm never gonna pass
She is my special, she is my special
She is my midnight, midnight, yeah
[Chorus]
So sweet, so fine, so nice
Oh my, my-my, my-my, oh
[Bridge]
Oh, yeah!
[Chorus]
So sweet, so fine, so nice
Oh my, my-my, my-my, oh
[Outro]
Sugar

I didn’t know who fucking Led Zeppelin was until I was in high school…

Yes. I had no foresight as to what kind of momentum would shroud the whole thing. it garnered attention faster than any of us thought it would. I don’t know why people are connecting to it, but when we write it’s very genuine and when they listen it’s something they haven’t heard in a long time. Or ever. The resounding appreciation is surreal and humbling.
Yes, “Highway Tune” was certified platinum by the RIAA on April 6, 2023.
