Lyrics (It's A) Long Lonely Highway - Elvis Presley

(It's A) Long Lonely Highway

Its a long lonely highway when youre travellin all alone
And its a mean old world when you got no-one to call your own
And you pass through towns too small to even have a name, oh yes
But you gotta keep on goin, on that road to nowhere
Gotta keep on goin, though theres no-one to care
Just keep movin down the line
Its a long lonely highway without her by my side
And its a trail full of teardrops that keep on being cried
My hearts so heavy its a low down dirty shame oh yes
You gotta keep on goin, on that road to nowhere
Gotta keep on goin, though theres no-one to care
Just keep movin down the line
I gotta rock for my pillow neath a weeping willow
And the cool grass for my bed
My drinking waters muddy so dont you tell me buddy
That I wouldnt be better off dead
Its a long lonely highway gettin longer all the time
And if she dont come and get me Well, Im gonna lose my mind
So if you read about me tell her shes the one to blame, oh yes
You gotta keep on goin, on that road to nowhere
Gotta keep on goin, though theres no-one to care
Just keep movin down the line
Movin down the line
Movin down the line
