A hundred thousand smokin' cars
Ev'ry single day
All bumper to bumper
Better build another highway
Right through the wetlands
And the farmland way out west
Then take a dagger
Sink it in my chest
And call it

The Legacy Highway
Right along the flyway
Right through the farmland and fields
Don't forget to tell the children about the way it used to be
When you take them for a ride down a road called Legacy

Well there ain't no way to stop
The sunrise or the wind
Changes and chances
They never come back again
Some will remember
Some will forget
Someday our children
Just might regret
We built that

Legacy Highway
Right along the flyway
Right through the farmland and fields
The children might wonder 'bout the way it used to be
When you take them for a ride down a road called Legacy

Don't forget to tell the children about the way it used to be
When you take them for a ride down a road called Legacy
