[Verse 1]
It's a long lonely highway when you're travelling all alone
And it's a mean old world when you got no-one to call your own
And you pa** through towns too small to even have a name, oh yes
But you got to keep on going, on that road to nowhere
Got to keep on going, though there's no-one to care
Just keep moving down the line
[Verse 2]
It's a long lonely highway without her by my side
And it's a trail full of teardrops that keep on being cried
My heart's so heavy it's a low down dirty shame oh yes
You got to keep on going, on that road to nowhere
Got to keep on going, though there's no-one to care
Just keep moving down the line
[bridge]
I got to rock for my pillow beneath a weeping willow
And the cool gra** for my bed
[Verse 3]
My drinking water's muddy so don't you tell me buddy
That I wouldn't be better off dead
It's a long lonely highway getting longer all the time
And if she don't come and get me
Well, I'm going to lose my mind
So if you read about me tell her she's the one to blame, oh yes
You got to keep on going, on that road to nowhere
Got to keep on going, though there's no-one to care
Just keep moving down the line
Moving down the line
Moving down the line
