Highway 51 Blues
(first releasecurtis jones)
Highway 51 runs right by my babys door
Highway 51 runs right by my babys door
But wont get the girl Im loving
Wont 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
Running from up wisconsin
Way down to no mans land.
Well, if I should die before my time should come
And if I should die before my time should come
Wont you bury my body
Out on highway 51?
Highway 51 runs right by my babys door
I said, highway 51 runs right by my babys door
But wont get the girl Im loving
Wont go down highway 51 no more.

Emotional Highway
Heard youre up to no good
Doin everything I never would
Shakes me up
Brings me down
Puts my world six feet underground
Well I need to know whats going on
Before I lose my mind
If I catch you with her I dont know what Ill do
When I get home what will I find
Whoa emotional highway
Driving all night and day through the pouring rain
Ive heard a rumor now
Ive got to find out for myself
If my babys giving his heart to someone else
Well my minds playing tricks
To think of you and her just makes me sick
Every mile that I go
I keep praying I dont lose control
Well the road is long and conditions are bad
And all I think about is you
I dont have time to wait in line
Move over mister
Ive gotta get through
Whoa emotional highway
Driving all night and day through the pouring rain
Ive heard a rumor now
Ive got to find out for myself
If my babys getting it on with someone else
Emotional highway

Emotional highway, emotional, emotional, emotional
Baby baby I know that were two of a kind
Thats why Ive got suspicion on my mind
Whoa emotional highway
Driving all night and day through the pouring rain

If my babys me up for someone else

I Got A Name
Like the pine trees linin the windin road
Ive got a name, Ive got a name
Like the singin bird and the croakin toad
Ive got a name, Ive got a name
And I carry it with me like my daddy did
But Im livin the dream that he kept hid
Movin me down the highway
Rollin me down the highway
Movin ahead so life wont pass me by
Like the north wind whistlin down the sky
Ive got a song, Ive got a song
Like the whippoorwill and the babys cry
Ive got a song, Ive got a song
And I carry it with me and I sing it loud
If it gets me nowhere, Ill go there proud
Movin me down the highway
Rollin me down the highway
Movin ahead so life wont pass me by
And Im gonna go there free
Like the fool I am and Ill always be
Ive got a dream, Ive got a dream
They can change their minds but they cant change me
Ive got a dream, Ive got a dream
Oh, I know I could share it if you want me to
If youre going my way, Ill go with you
Movin me down the highway
Rollin me down the highway
Movin ahead so life wont pass me by

I Need A Lover

I need a lover that wont drive me crazy
(I need a lover that wont drive me crazy)
I need a lover that wont drive me crazy
Some girl that knows the meaning of, ah-
Hey hit the highway!
Well Ive been walking the streets in the evenin
Racin through the human jungle at night
Im so confused, my mind is indifferent
Hey - Im so weak, wont somebody shut off that light?
Electricity runs thru the video
And I watch it from this hole I call home
And all them stonies are dancin to the radio
And I got the world callin me up free tonight on the phone
(I need a lover that wont drive me crazy)
Some girl wholl thrill me and then go away
(I need a lover that wont drive me crazy)
Some girl that knows the meaning of ah-
Hey hit the highway!
Well Im not wiped out by this poolroom life Im livin
Im gonna quit this job, and go to school, and head back home
(head back home)
Now Im not asking to be loved or be forgiven
Hey - I just cant face shakin in this bedroom
One more night alone
(I need a lover that wont drive me crazy)
(I need a lover that wont drive me crazy)
(I need a lover that wont drive me crazy)
Some girl that knows the meaning of ah-
Hey hit the highway!

(I need a lover that wont drive me crazy)
Some girl to thrill me and then go away

Rockin Down The Highway
Tom johnston
Got those highway blues, cant you hear my motor runnin
Flyin down the road with my foot on the floor
All the way in town they can hear me comin
Fords about to drop, she wont do no more
And I smell my motor burnin
Underneath the hood is smoke
Cant stop, and I cant stop
Got to keep on movin or Ill lose my mind
Oh, rockin down the highway
Oh, rockin down the highway
Oh, rockin down the highway
Oh, rockin down the highway
The highway patrol got his eyes on me
I know what hes thinkin and it aint good
Im movin so fast he can barely see me
Gonna lose that man, I know I should
I gotta kick in my pedal
Make my ford move a little bit faster
Cant stop, and I cant stop
Got to keep on movin or Ill lose my mind
Oh, rockin down the highway
Oh, rockin down the highway

Oh, rockin down the highway

Hit The Highway
Your way
No way
Do it my way
Or hit the highway
Your way
No way
Do it my way
Or hit the highway
I respect your point of view
Youve got your thoughts
Ive got mine too
But youll be out of here
If I dont hear the words I want to hear
Your way
No way
You do it my way
Or you can hit the highway
Ive watched you
Backsliding
Then theres trouble
You, your always hiding
Now if I was in your shoes
I might look at me and think
Theres a fool
But Im not in your shoes
And I dont have to play
By your set of rules no no
Your way
Let me tell you that theres no way
No way you do it my way
Or you can hit the highway
Hit it again
Your way
No way
Do it my way
Or hit the highway
Im stating - not negotiating
You want more
Theres the door

Strollin Down The Highway
Strolling down the highway
I'm gonna get there my way
Just keep on down-a-walking
You hear my guitar, rocking
Well I stroll
On down
On down the highway
People think Im a crazing
Lot about how theyre-a-lazing
Sunshines all day long
Narcotics far too strong
Well I stroll
On down
On down the highway
Cars wont stop for no one
But dont you think that youre just rolling down
Think you are a spy
Gonna shoot them as they go by
Well, no cars
No cars
Wont stop for no one
Strolling down the highway
Im gonna get there my way
Just keep on down-a-walking
You hear my guitar, rocking
Well I stroll

Published by slalom publishing co. - bmi
Highway hard run, sure runs, sure hard
Highway hard run, sure runs, sure hard
Just got into montreal
Were looking for relief, but that aint all (oh yeah)
The riot squads on full alert
Esp. for the one that wears a skirt (oh yeah)
Woman I need someone, cant be just anyone
I need someone who knows the way
Walked into this smoke-filled bar
The bands a joke, yeah the singers gone too far (ooh yeah)
But the waiter said shed soon be here
Now should I go or have another beer (oh yeah)
Just let me hold you tight, everything feels so nice
Let me just whisper in your ear (kiss my gut)
Highway hard run, sure runs, sure hard
Highway hard run, sure runs, sure hard
Woman I need someone, cant be just anyone
I need someone who knows the way
Just let me hold you tight, everything feels so nice
Let me just whisper in your ear

Rockin' Down The Highway (single Version)
Tom Johnston
Got those highway blues, can't you hear my motor runnin'
Flyin' down the road with my foot on the floor
All the way in town they can hear me comin'
Ford's about to drop, she won't do no more
And I smell my motor burnin'
Underneath the hood is smoke
Can't stop, and I can't stop
Got to keep on movin' or I'll lose my mind
Oh, rockin' down the highway
Oh, rockin' down the highway
Oh, rockin' down the highway

The highway patrol got his eyes on me
I know what he's thinkin' and it ain't good
I'm movin' so fast he can barely see me
Gonna lose that man, I know I should
I gotta kick in my pedal
Make my Ford move a little bit faster
Can't stop, and I can't stop
Got to keep on movin' or I'll lose my mind

Blue Highway
Show my dear friends

I ought to start this here
Rain for a day glow
But when you wants to boy so
And I wake up in the usa
Oh you know were gonna ride
On a blue highway
Walk with the legs youre blind
On a blue highway
Wave hellow to pride
On my highway

On a blue highway
Oh some sweet mask
Or its kind of a bitter risk
Out to ride the night
Oh sisters so hip too
I hear you and I miss you
Co-starring in the usa
Oh you know were gonna ride
On a blue highway
Walk with the legs youre blind
On a blue highway
Wave hellow to pride
On my highway
Yes I almost died
On a blue highway
Why do I miss you
Why did I kiss you
Because
Oh you know were gonna ride
On a blue highway
Walk with the legs youre blind
On a blue highway
Wave hellow to pride
On my highway
Yes I almost died
So glad that youre living now
Im glad that youre here
Im glad that you wanna stay
Because
You know were gonna ride
On a blue highway
Walk with the legs youre blind
On a blue highway
Wave hellow to pride
On my highway
Yes I almost died
On a blue highway
On a blue highway
Wings and well wind the love
Yes theres a time a time for love
Then you kissed me
On a blue highway
Why do I miss you
Why did I kiss you

Carefree Highway
Pickin up the pieces of my sweet shattered dream
I wonder how the old folks are tonight
Her name was ann and Ill be damned if I recall her face
She left me not knowin what to do
Carefree highway, let me slip away on you
Carefree highway, you seen better days
The mornin after blues from my head down to my shoes
Carefree highway, let me slip away
Slip away on you
Turnin back the pages to the times I love best
I wonder if shell ever do the same
Now the thing that I call livin is just bein satisfied
With knowin I got no one left to blame
Carefree highway, got ta see you my old flame
Carefree highway, you seen better days
The mornin after blues from my head down to my shoes
Carefree highway, let me slip away
Slip away on you
Searchin through the fragments of my dream-shattered sleep
I wonder if the years have closed her mind
I guess it must be wanderlust or tryin to get free
From the good old faithful feelin we once knew
Carefree highway, let me slip away on you
Carefree highway, you seen better days
The mornin after blues from my head down to my shoes
Carefree highway, let me slip away
Slip away on you
Let me slip away on you
Carefree highway, got ta see you my old flame
Carefree highway, you seen better days
The mornin after blues from my head down to my shoes
Carefree highway, let me slip away
Slip away on you

Lost Highway (live)
I'm a rollin' stone all alone and lost
For a life of sin I have paid the cost
When I past 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 makes a life like mine
On the day we met, oh I went astray
I started rolling 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 paid a cost, on the lost highway
Now boy's don't start to ramblin' round
On this road of sin are you sorrow bound
Take my advice or you'll curse the day
You started rollin' down that lost highway
You started rollin' down that lost highway
You started rollin' down that lost highway
You started rollin' down that lost highway

Kings Highway
Walkin down kings highway
With a brown paper bag in my hand
Nothin else but the clothes I got on
But I aint lookin back
I aint lookin back
Blame it on the midnight girl
And that wicked spell she cast
She pulled me in with them liquid eyes
Now I aint looking back
I aint looking back
Oh what a tangled web she weaves
I was losing my mind
Starin down the barrel of a gun
Its just a matter of time
Walkin down kings highway
Black cat crossin my path
I know thats her trying to make me stay
But, I aint looking back
I aint looking back
Kings highway
I got to travel that

The Long Highway
Heard a bell being toll
Before the break of day
I heard then my name being called
Down that long highway
You dont get long
You dont get long
You dont get long to stay
Kissing me once and Ill be gone
Down that long highway
Spirits call from way beyond
Lord I may not disobey
Spare a thought for the vagabond
Down that long highway
Down that long highway
Down that long highway

In the beginning
Out of nowhere
We had a dream
And now its
Helloween
Speed up to a
Higher limit
Change gear, were
Losin our spirit
We wont take your
Special advice
We are close to a
Metal breakdown
Sirens to warn of
Our meltdown
We couldnt see that
Headline
Now we an see
A horizon
Were gonna be here
To stay
If you cannot
See our sign
You must be blind
Still we go
Still we go
Still we go
On the metal highway
Still we go
Warn out, wont die
On our knees
Shine on, proud
As we can be
Time has come to
Stop pleasing you
Hey man, lets get
It together
Our strenght will
Last forever
Push us as far
As we can go
Now we an see
A horizon
Were gonna be here
To stay
If you cannot
See our sign
You must be blind
Still we go
Still we go
Still we go
On the metal highway
Still we go
How many times must
A man cross the lines
To find his right way
Still we go
Still we go
Still we go
On the metal highway

Emperor Of The Highway
I am the emperor of the highway
I wield the universal will
One might chance to overlook on my divineness
Unless Im sitting in the imperial poupe de ville
I am the emperor of the highway
Strapped with foolish mortals such as these
I need never indicate my intentions
I can stop and go and turn just as I please
For I am the emperor of the highway
Hold!
Methinks that thou hast driven too far
I am the royal prince of foreign sports cars
Better that I should drive a wheelchair or jog
Than to be blown off by a regal road hog
I am the emperor of the highway
(where did you ever get that gas sucking pig of a car? )
This time my friend, you are outclassed
(any real man would drive a stick shift)
For my uncle is the duke of the state police
(cut me off again and I will punch your lights out)
And he will place his royal boot upon your ass
(this is my exit, we shall meet another day)
Dont forget whos emperor of the highway
For I am the emperor of the highway!

Highway Lady
Run down, low down, dont feel tired
Take no orders, dont get fired
I waste away cruisin along
* fighting blizzards, ragin storms
Hold the wheels tight, know Im born to ramble on
Cruisin along
But I stop, turn my head around
Sleep until tomorrow, in my arms
In my arms,
Highway lady, lorelei, dream the big time high above
Highway lady, high on wheels make you smile again
How she feels
Found my way to spanish stairs
Small corruption, no one cares I taste a lie
Cruisin along

Both Sides Now
So long, big city; it's time to say goodbye.I'm longing for those country roads;I need to see the sky.Think I'll take a swing down south, visit Tennessee.See if that girl Annie still remembers me.
Gonna take that blue highway and leave this sorry town.Stayed too long, but now I'm gone, and I know where I'm bound.I don't wanna take the interstate; it represents all the things I hate.I'm rollin' down that blue highway.
So long, confusion; it's time to slow things down.Say goodbye to my old friends, ease on out of town.I made me some money here but paid for ev'ry day.And ev'ry mile just makes me smile, 'cause I made my getaway.
Gonna take that blue highway and leave this sorry town.I've stayed too long, but now I'm gone, and I know where I'm bound.I've had it up to here with worry.From now on, I'm in no hurry, rollin' down that blue highway.
I'll be ridin' that blue highway and leave this sorry town.I've stayed too long, but now I'm gone, and I know where I'm bound.I've had it up to here with worry.From now on, I'm in no hurry, rollin' down that blue highway.I'll be rollin' down that blue highway.You can find me on that blue highway.
