Lyrics
The only real way is the highway
The only real way is the highway

Paid my dues singing the blues
Not gonna bitch about the holes in my shoes
Play all night work all day
Travel around the country
Because I love to play

The only real way is the highway
The only real way is the highway

Get to get on the stage
I get to let out my rage
I get to bend the bars of my vocal range
Travel across the land
Making payments on the van
Rock as hard as we physically can

Gonna rock as hard as we physically can
Gonna rock as hard as we physically can
The hard way!

Fuck #1 we plat it all for fun
The harder it gets
Is cause the harder it comes
Not better than the rest
Just put ourselves to the test
Putting the suck back into success

The only real way is the highway
The only real way is the highway

I think I can
I think I can
I think I can
I think I can
I think I can

It's what you make it man
It's what you make it man
It's what you make it man
It's what you make it

It's what you make it man
You get out of it what you put in
You get out of it what you put in
It's what you make it man
It's what you make it man
It's what you make it man
It's what you make it!
