(it s A) Long Lonely Highway lyrics
(Words & music by Pomus - Shuman)
It s a long lonely highway when you re travellin all alone
And it s 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 there s no-one to care
Just keep movin down the line
It s a long lonely highway without her by my side
And it s a trail full of teardrops that keep on being cried
My heart s so heavy it s a low down dirty shame oh yes
You gotta keep on goin , on that road to nowhere
Gotta keep on goin , though there s 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 water s muddy so don t you tell me buddy
That I wouldn t be better off dead
It s a long lonely highway gettin longer all the time
And if she don t come and get me
Well, I m gonna lose my mind
So if you read about me tell her she s the one to blame, oh yes
You gotta keep on goin , on that road to nowhere
Gotta keep on goin , though there s no-one to care
Just keep movin down the line
Movin down the line
Movin down the line
