I got the key to the highway
Feel, Lord, I'm bound to go
I'm going to leave here running
'Cause walking's much too slow
I'm going back to the bottom
Where I'm better known
'Cause you haven't done nothing
But drove a good man away from home
Give me one more kiss, mama (one, mama)
Just before I go (ooh)
'Cause when I leave this time, girl (ah-ooh)
I won't be back no more
Well all right
When the moon peep over the mountain
Honey I'll be on my way
I'm going to roam this highway
Until the break of day
Well it's so long, so long, baby (ooh, ah-ooh)
I must say goodbye
I'm going to roam this highway
Until the day I die
