Highway Humming by the Railroad Track
Eight miles back, there's a no-good man
She's never gonna let him touch the kids again
Are we there yet, Mama?
Are we there yet, Mama?
Gonna be at least a little while
Are we there yet, Mama?
Another half a mile, child
Tears in her eyes, all are closed
In the trunk
Trying to make her get away
In this piece of junk
Broke down just out of bowling green
Guess I tended making guesses she don't need
Are we there yet, Mama?
Are we there yet, Mama?
Gonna be at least a little while
Are we there yet, Mama?
Another half a mile
Child
Bill Boyd says you've come a long way
Not much a woman came to today
But I was there yet, Mama
To tell you I love you so much

Are we there yet, Mama?
Gonna be at least a little while
Are we there yet, Mama?
Will I have my child?
Highway humming by the railroad track
A whole lot of howling from the kitchen back
Are we there yet, Mama?
Are we there yet, Mama?
Gonna be at least a little while
Are we there yet, Mama?
Will I have my child?
Are we there yet, Mama?
Will I have my child?
Are we there yet, Mama?
Will I have my child?
Are we there yet, Mama?
Will I have my child?
I'll be dead yet, mama
I'll never have a mother
Dead yet, mama
