F# B C#
Down every road thereʼs always one more city
B C# F#
Iʼm on the run, the highway is my home
F# B C#
I raised a lot of cane back in my younger days
B C# F#
While Mama used to pray my crops would fail
F# B C#
Now Iʼm a hunted fugitive with just two ways:
B C# F#
Outrun the law or spend my life in jail
Chorus:
F# B C#
Iʼd like to settle down but they wonʼt let me
B C#
A fugitive must be a rolling stone
F# B C#
Down every road thereʼs always one more city
B C# F#
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.
B C# F#
Iʼm on the run, the highway is my home
