G C D Down every road thereʼs always one more city C D G Iʼm on the run, the highway is my home G C D I raised a lot of cane back in my younger days C D G While Mama used to pray my crops would fail G C D Now Iʼm a hunted fugitive with just two ways: C D G Outrun the law or spend my life in jail Chorus: G C D Iʼd like to settle down but they wonʼt let me C D A fugitive must be a rolling stone G C D Down every road thereʼs always one more city C D G Iʼm on the run, the highway is my home Iʼm lonely but I canʼt afford the luxury Of having one I love to come along Sheʼd only slow me down and theyʼd catch up with me For he who travels fastest goes alone Chorus. C D G Iʼm on the run, the highway is my home
