Lonesome Fugitive Lyrics

David Allan Coe Lonesome Fugitive

Down every road there's always one more city I'm on the
run the highway is my home
I raised a lot of cane back in my younger days
While mama used to pray my crops would fail
Now I'm a hunted fugitive with just two ways outrun the
law or spend my life in jail
I'd like to settle down but they won't let me a fugitive
must be a rolling stone
Down every road there's always one more city I'm on the
run the highway is my home
[ guitar ]
I'm lonely but I can't afford the luxury of having the
one I love to come along
She'd only slow me down and they'd catch up with me
For he who travels fastest goes alone
I'd like to settle down...
I'm on the run the highway is my home
