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 I'm going back to the border Where I'm better known 'Cause you haven't done nothin' But drove a good man away from home Give me one mo' kiss, mama Just befo' I go 'Cause when I'm leavin' here I won't be back no mo' (harmonica) 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 Well, it's so-long, so-long, baby I must say good-bye I'm gonna roam this highway Until the day I die. (harmonica & instrumental to end)
