  • 作词 : Doug Johnson/Kim Williams
    作曲 : Doug Johnson/Kim Williams
    A farmer and a teacher
    A hooker and a preacher
    Riding on a midnight bus
    Bound for Mexico
    One was heading for vacation
    One for higher education
    And two of them were searching for lost souls

    That driver never ever saw the stop sign
    And 18 wheelers can't stop on a dime

    There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
    Why there's not four of them heaven only knows
    I guess it's not what you take
    When you leave this world behind you
    It's what you leave behind you when you go

    That farmer left a harvest
    A home and 80 acres
    The faith and love for growing things
    In his young son's heart

    And that teacher left her wisdom
    In the minds of lots of children
    Did her best to give 'em all
    A better start

    And that preacher whispered
    "Can't you see the promised land?"
    As he lay his blood stained Bible
    In that hooker's hand

    There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
    Why there's not four of them heaven only knows
    I guess it's not what you take
    When you leave this world behind you
    It's what you leave behind you when you go

    That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday
    As he held that blood stained Bible up
    For all of us to see
    He said, "Bless the farmer
    And the teacher
    And the preacher
    Who gave this Bible to my momma
    Who read it to me"

    There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
    Why there's not four of them now I guess we know
    It's not what you take
    When you leave this world behind you
    It's what you leave behind you when you go

    There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway......
