Dave Alvin - New Highway lyrics

Dave Alvin (Blue Horn Toad Music, BMI, Administered by Bug Music) Well I'm leavin' this mornin' baby Gonna ride that new highway Yeah I'm leavin' this mornin' baby Gonna ride that new highway And the more you cry the more you gonna drive me away. I ain't got no family Ain't got no wife or no child I ain't got no family Ain't got no wife, no child Ain't got no religion, I'm just out here runnin' wild. Well a rich man's got money And a poor man's only got his soul Yeah rich man's got the money baby Poor boy only got his soul But I got this new highway and I don't care where I go. Well this new highway baby Takes me from town to town Yeah this new highway baby Takes me from town to town Where some sweet angel always lets me lay down. Well my Kansas woman's got Skin as white as snow Yeah my Kansas City baby's got Skin as white as snow But my Deep Ellum woman's got hair as black as coal. Well your lovers will leave you baby Good friends will come and go Yeah your lovers will leave you baby Good friends come and go But this new highway's the best friend I've ever known. Now the gold sun's settin' baby Silver moon on the rise Yeah the gold sun's settin' baby Silver moon on the rise Gonna ride this highway ‘til the day I die.
