Gene Pitney - Trans-Canada highway

Met a woman in Vancouver Nearly drove me outta my mind She told me she was looking For a man that could satisfy She was married to a law man And life was passing her by In a two room shack And now she wanted to fly You know a man of hunger is a man of fear And being hungry for your love Is being hungry for my blood A jealous man can make a big man run And I am running like the devil through the morning sun Trans-Canada highway take me home Trans-Canada highway take me home Take me home Moved out of town in a hurry He's chasing me mile after mile I'm driving 'coz I'm knowing That I've got his lady with me I see a sign for Toronto Almost making me smile The border's in sight I think I'm gonna be free You know a man of hunger is a man of fear And being hungry for you love Is being hungry for my blood A jealous man can make a big man run And I am running like the devil for the morning sun Trans-Canada highway take me home Trans-Canada highway take me home Take me home The morning paper had a photograph Of his burnt out wreck and it made me laugh I told the lady but the lady ran And now the papers say I'm a wanted man on the (2x) Trans-Canada highway take me home Trans-Canada highway take me home Take me home
