I’m a rollin’ stone all alone and lost For a life of sin I’ve paid the cost When I pass by all the people say Just another guy on the lost highway
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine And a woman’s lies make a life like mine On the day we met I went astray I’m rollin’ down that lost highway
I was just a lad nearly twenty-two Neither good nor bad just a kid like you And now I’m lost too late to pray Lord, I’ve paid the cost on the lost highway
Now boys don’t start to rambling round On this road of sin or you’re sorrow bound Take my advice or you’ll curse the day You started rollin’ down that lost highway You started rollin’ down that lost highway
