Key to the Highway Songtext
von Jimmy LaFave

I got the key to the highway
And I′m billed out and bound to go
I'm gonna leave here runnin′
'Cause walkin' is most too slow

I′m goin′ down on the border
Now where I'm better known
′Cause woman you don't do nothin′
But drive a good man 'way from home


Now when the moon creeps over the mountain
I′ll be on my way
Now I'm gonna walk this old highway
Until the break of day

Come here, sweet mama
Now and help me with this heavy load
I am due in West Texas
And I've got to get on the road

I′m goin′ to West Texas
I'm goin′ down behind the farm I'm gonna AX, the good Lord
What evil have I done
