Lyrics
Key To The Highway
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've got the key, to the highway,
billed out and bound to go
I'm gonna leave here running,
because, walkin' is most too slow
I'm goin' back to the border,
where I'm better known
Because, you haven't done nothin',
but drove, a good man away from home
Give me one more kiss, mama,
just before I go
I'm gonna leave this town,
girl I, won't be back no more
When the moon peep over the mountain,
honey, I'll be on my way
I'm gonna roam this highway,
until the break of day
Well it's so long, so long baby,
I'm gonna say goodbye
I'm gonna roam this highway,
until the day I die
