Highways & Byways |
All the bright lights in Memphis were a shinin' |
As we rode in to town on rainy night |
We stopped for a bite at the blues cafe' |
But we soon had to be on our way |
We had a show down the road in Arkansas |
Down there they thought I was some kind of star |
They has us playin' all night long |
And they danced every song |
And some nights the bossman payed my bar |
My whole life’s been Highways 'n' Byways |
Broken dreams of designated skyways |
Life’s been flashin' by |
One day I know I’ll die |
Somewere on Highways and Byways |
I’ve been up and down these roads since my teens |
From Milwaukee down to New Orleans |
All I’ve got is this guitar in my hand |
My '74 Chevy and my band |
If we’d only had a hit to take us higher |
Wish I’d done a song that sat the world on fire |
Now we’re goin' round the same old places |
Seeing the same ol' faces |
Drivin' this van with worn out tires |
My whole life’s been Highways 'n' Byways |
Broken dreams of disignated skyways |
Life’s been flashin' by |
One day I know I’ll die |
Somewere on Highways and Byways |
Somewere on Highways and Byways |
Now I’m callin' up my daughter just to see |
if she’d like to come to hear the boys 'n' me |
'Cause tonight we’re playin' in our hometown |
'n' I’d love it if she’d like to come down |
But she tells that she just don’t dig our sound |
And she hates me for never being around |
So tonight just ain’t no good time |
And she hasn’t got a dime |
I say you know were I’ll be found |
My whole life’s been Highways 'n' Byways |
Broken dreams of designated skyways |
Life’s been flashin' by |
One day I know I’ll die |
Somewere on Highways and Byways Somewere on Highways and Byways |
