Everybody's talkin', let 'em say what they wanna say
And Lord knows I won't be here tomorrow
Everybody's talkin', no one's listenin' anyway
Feels like I'm running out of time to borrow
I've lived a good life with a family and a home
Still, I don't think twice about sinners throwing stones
I'm gonna take the high road even when they put me down
Im gonna take the high road when it feels like heaven can't be found
I'm gonna sip a little Tennessee whiskey, light a little smoke out back
I'm gonna play guitar underneath them stars until the good Lord calls me back
When they go low, hey, don't you know?
I'm gonna take the high road, yeah
Ain't nobody judgin', you can do what you wanna do
I'm not your boss and I ain't your father
Ain't nobody judgin', I'll do me and you do you
Life is short and I can't be bothered
I've tried to play nice, good people are hard too find
But I'll keep on searching even if I'm running blind
I'm gonna take the high road even when they put me down
Im gonna take the high road when it feels like heaven can't be found
I'm gonna sip a little Tennessee whiskey, light a little smoke out back
I'm gonna play guitar underneath them stars until the good Lord calls me back
When they go low, hey, don't you know?
I'm gonna take the high road, yeah
Now I've lived my best life, the mistakes I made were mine
But I've lived a blessed life, and when the good Lord says it's time
The good lord says it's time
I'm gonna take the high road, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh)
I'm gonna sip a little Tennessee whiskey, light a little smoke out back (Light a little smoke out back, yeah)
And play guitar underneath them stars until the good Lord calls me back
When they go low, hey, don't you know? (Hey, don't you know?)
When they go low, I just get stoned (They go low, oh)
And take the high road
(One, two, three, four)
(Na-na, na-na-na, na-na, yeah, yeah)
Take the high road, ooh, yeah (Na-na, na-na-na, na-na, yeah)
Take the high road (Na-na, na-na-na, na-na, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Take the high road (Na-na, na-na-na, na-na, yeah, yeah)
Take, take the high road, oh, yeah (Na-na, na-na-na, na-na, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Take the high road, the high road, the high, the high, the high (Na-na, na-na-na, na-na, ooh, yeah)
Take the high road (Na-na, na-na-na, na-na)
Take the high road (Na-na, na-na-na, na-na, ooh)
