Lost Highway Lyrics

Steve Goodman Lost Highway

I'm a rolling stone
All alone and lost
Oh, the life of sin
I have paid the cost

When I pass by
All the people say
Just another guy
On the lost highway

For a deck of cards
And a jug of gin
And a woman's lies
Built this road of sin

The day we met
I went astray
Started rolling down
That lost highway

I was just a lad
Nearly twenty-two
Neither good nor bad
Just a guy like you

Now I'm lost
Too late to pray
Lord, I've paid the cost
On the lost highway
Now, boys, don't start
Your rambling round
On this road of sin
Are you sorrow bound?

Take my advice
Or you're cursed the day
You've paid the price
Of the lost highway
