[00:19.35]Well I was born in Carolina way back in the swamp
[00:23.85]I was a happy country boy 'til television came along
[00:28.16]It showed them far away places and it sho was a b***h
[00:32.45]'Cause every time I'd quit my traveling
[00:35.37]Well my feet would start to itch
[00:37.27]So I borrowed my daddy's suitcase and picked up my guitar
[00:41.79]I walked up the highway and flagged down a car
[00:46.23]I hitchhiked out to Kansas City just as far as I could
[00:50.97]My life was all before me and that highway sure looked good
[00:55.29]Gimme that highway better go my way
[00:59.90]Crank up the big wheels let 'em roll on
[01:04.51]I'm movin' like a fast train gimme that passing lane
[01:08.82]And I'm gone I'm packin' my load a little farther down the road
[01:14.16]I moved on down to Dallas soon as I got the chance
[01:18.10]I was playin' funky music for them city folks to dance
[01:22.39]And I had money in my pocket I had fun in my bed
[01:26.91]But I've been here a year now and it's gettin' to my head
[01:31.21]'Cause I've been rocked into ruin I've been discoed to death
[01:35.89]I've been funk rocked and punk rocked 'til I can't catch my breath
[01:40.52]I've been ragged 'til I'm ragged I've been new waved 'til I'm blind
[01:45.14]But I've got a solution for my funky state of mind
[01:49.07]Gimme that highway better go my way
[01:53.71]Crank up the big wheels let 'em roll on
[01:58.71]I'm moving like a fast train gimme that passing lane
[02:02.77]And I'll be gone no more blues just as long as I can move
[02:34.63]Gimme that highway better go my way
[02:38.52]Crank up the big wheels let 'em roll on
[02:43.32]I'm moving like a fast train gimme that passing lane
[02:47.83]And I'm gone I'm packing my load a little further down the road
