61 Highway Songtext / Lyric

Lord that 61 highway is the longest road I know

61 highway is the longest road I know

Runs from Chicago -

Down to the Gulf of Mexico



Gonna buy me a pony – take him for a run

Gonna buy me a racehorse – take him for a run

See me comin', pretty mama -

Down Highway 61






Somebody please -

Bring a letter down south for me

I said somebody please -

Bring a letter down south for me

If you see my pretty baby -

Tell her she's allright with me



I started school one monday morning -

Tuesday I threw my books away

I started school one monday morning -

Tuesday I threw my books away

Said goodbye to my teacher -

I'm gonna try 61 highway



When I die – baby when my time has come

When I die – baby you know my time ain't long

I want you to bury my body -

Out on Highway 61
