Key to the Highway [1978 Hotel Room, NYC] Songtext
von Keith Richards

I got the key to the highway
Feel like I′m bound to go
I'm gonna 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
Just before I go
′Cause when I leave this time, girl
I won't be back, not for long

When the moon peep over the mountain
Honey, I′ll be on my way
I'm gonna roam this highway
Until the break of day

Well, it′s so long, so long, baby
I must say goodbye
I'm gonna roam this highway
Until the day I die
