Verse 1
I got the key to the highway,
And I'm booked out and bound to go
I'm gonna leave here runnin',
'Cause walkin' is most too slow
Verse 2
I'm goin' down on the border,
Now where I'm better known
Cause woman you don't do nothin',
But drive a good man 'way from home
Verse 3
Now when the moon creeps over the mountain,
I'll be on my way
Now I'm gonna walk this old highway,
Until the break of day

Verse 4
Come here, sweet mama,
Now and help me with this heavy load
I am due in West Texas,
And I've got to get on the road
Verse 5
I'm goin' to West Texas,
I'm goin' down behind the sun
I'm gonna ask the good Lord
What evil have I done
