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
Out-run 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 rollin' stone
Down every road there's
always one more city
I'm on the run
The highway is my home
I'm lonely
But I can't afford the luxury
of havin' 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
But they won't let me
A fugitive must be
a rollin' stone
Down every road there's
always one more city
I'm on the run
The highway is my home
I'm on the run
The highway is my home
