(G) Put on your (C) high heeled (D) shoes  
And that (G) brand new dress you (C) found 
(G) Baby let's go into (D) town (Cadd9) 
(G) We can take my (C) Dad's old (D) Dodge  
(G) I've already bought the (C) gas 
(G) To get us there and (D) back (Cadd9) (G) 

(C) We may never (D) get ahead 
(G) But we don't have to (C) move so slow 
(G) We can take the (C) fastest lane  
(D) Down the (C) longest (G) road 
 
You say this place has got you down  
And there's nothin' here to do 
Oh but baby that's not true 
We can hear the alley cat choir 
Watch the parade of empty fields 
Life is a circus spinnin' right at our heels 
 
Chorus 
 
Before this quarter moon is spent 
We'll let these razor high beam lights 
Cut us a slice of Friday night 
But baby don't you act so shy 
Slide over close to me 
We won't always feel this free, yeah 
 
Chorus 
 
Baby down the longest road (twice)
