|
I'm a rolling stone, all alone and lost, |
|
For a life of sin, |
|
I have paid the cost. |
|
When I pass by, all the people say"Just another guy on the lost highway." |
|
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine |
|
And a woman's lies make a life like mine. |
|
Oh, the day we met, |
|
I went astray, |
|
I started rollin' down that lost highway. |
|
I was just a lad, nearly twenty-two, |
|
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you, |
|
And now I'm lost, too late to pray, |
|
Lord, I've paid the cost on the lost highway. |
|
Now, boys, don't start your ramblin' round, |
|
On this road of sin or you're sorrow bound. |
|
Take my advice or you'll curse the day |
|
You started rollin' down that lost highway. |
