61 Highway
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
