Lyrics Blood on the Highway - Asphalt Ballet

Blood on the Highway

On the dirty streets of Memphis
Down an' onto New Orleans
Gonna find a Cajun lady, make a man out of me, yeah
Living like there’s no tomorrow
Lovin' when it comes my way
Well it’s a lonely road, a new town to go every day
Lord I’m a gypsy man, that’s what I am
Yeah, I’m a drifter gettin' by, gettin' by the best I can
It’s blood on the highway
I’ve left on the road
It’s blood on the highway
That’s eatin' my soul, my soul, my soul
Lord, I’m never coming home
Muddy water Mississippi
Drag me onto Caroline
Hat totin' mama, wish she was a friend of mine
Sure do!
Lord I’m a gypsy man, that’s what I am
Yeah, I’m a drifter gettin' by, gettin' by the best I can
It’s blood on the highway
I’ve left on the road
It’s blood on the highway
That’s eatin' my soul, my soul, my soul
It’s blood on the highway
I’ve left on the road
It’s blood on the highway
That’s eatin' my soul, my soul, my soul
Lord, I’m never coming home
Down around the plains of Georgia
Razorbacks and bama’s tide
Lose me on the way to Cali, I need a little more time
Yeah, I sure do!
It’s blood on the highway
I’ve left on the road
Well yeah, there’s blood on the highway
That’s eatin' my soul, my soul, my soul
It’s blood on the highway
I’ve left on the road
It’s blood on the highway
It’s eatin' my soul, my soul, my soul, yeah
Oh yeah!
