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
