I've got the key to the highway
Billed out and bound to go
I'm gonna leave here, runnin'
Because walkin' is most too slow
Billed out and bound to go
I'm gonna leave here, runnin'
Because walkin' is most too slow
I'm going back to the border
Where I'm better known
'Coz you haven't done nothin'
But drove a good man away from home
Where I'm better known
'Coz you haven't done nothin'
But drove a good man away from home
Give me one mo' kiss, mama
Just befo' I go
'Coz when I'm leavin' here
I won't be back no mo'
Just befo' I go
'Coz when I'm leavin' here
I won't be back no mo'
(harmonica solo)
When the moon
Peep o'vr the mountain
Honey, I'll be on my way
I'm gonna walk this highway
Until the break of day
Peep o'vr the mountain
Honey, I'll be on my way
I'm gonna walk this highway
Until the break of day
Well, it's so-long, so-long, baby
I must say good-bye
I'm gonna roam this highway
Until the day I die.
I must say good-bye
I'm gonna roam this highway
Until the day I die.
(harmonica & instrumental to end)
