[00:04.45]Written by：Larry Cordle
[00:08.90]Well these highway forty blues
[00:12.72]I've walked holes in both my shoes
[00:16.95]Counted the days since I've been gone
[00:20.68]And I'd love to see the lights of home
[00:25.08]Wasted time and money too
[00:29.06]Squandered youth in search of truth
[00:33.06]But in the end I had to lose
[00:35.48]Lord above I've paid my dues
[00:37.29]Got the highway forty blues
[00:41.43]The highway called when I was young
[00:45.61]Told me lies of things to come
[00:49.73]Fame and fortune lies ahead
[00:53.77]That's what the billboard lights had said
[00:57.89]Shattered dreams my mind is numb
[01:01.91]My money's gone stick out my thumb
[01:06.03]My eyes are filled with bitter tears
[01:08.32]Lord I ain't been home in years
[01:10.27]Got the highway forty blues
[02:19.13]You know I've rambled all around
[02:23.00]Like a rolling stone from town to town
[02:27.29]Met pretty girls I have to say
[02:31.50]But none of them could make me stay
[02:35.38]Well I've played the music halls and bars
[02:39.53]Had fancy clothes and big fine cars
[02:43.82]Things a country boy can't use
[02:45.84]Dixieland I sure miss you
[02:47.85]Got the highway forty blues
