[Verse 1]
A7 E7
​I got the key to the highway,
D7 D7
And I'm booked out and bound to go
A7
I'm gonna leave here runnin',
E7 A7 E7
'Cause walkin' is most too slow

[Verse 2]
A7 E7
I'm goin' down on the border,
D7 D7
Now where I'm better known
A7
Cause woman you don't do nothin',
E7 A7 E7
But drive a good man 'way from home

[Verse 3]
A7 E7
Now when the moon creeps over the mountain,
D7 D7
I'll be on my way
A7
Now I'm gonna walk this old highway,
E7 A7 E7
Until the break of day

Now and help me with this heavy load

And I've got to get on the road

I'm goin' down behind the sun
