Highway 51 Songtext / Lyric

Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door,
Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door,
If I don't get the girl I'm lovin',
Won't go down Highway 51 no more.

Well, I know that highway like I know my hand,
Yes, I know that highway like I know the back of my hand,
Runnin' from up Wisconsin way down to no man's land.

Well, if I should die before my time should come,
And if I should die before my time should come,
Won't you bury my body out on Highway 51.

Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door,
I said, Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door,
If I don't get the girl I'm lovin',
Won't go down Highway 51 no more.
