MY GRANDDADDY
WAS A MINER
BUT HE FINALLY
SAW THE LIGHT
HE DIDN'T HAVE MUCH
JUST A BEAT-UP TRUCK
AND A DREAM ABOUT
A BETTER LIFE
GRANDMAMA CRIED
WHEN SHE WAVED
GOODBYE
YOU NEVER HEARD
SUCH A LONESOME
SOUND
PRETTY SOON
THE DIRT ROAD
TURNED INTO BLACKTOP
DETROIT CITY BOUND
DOWN THAT HILLBILLY
HIGHWAY
ON THAT HILLBILLY
HIGHWAY
THAT OL' HILLBILLY
HIGHWAY
GOES ON AND ON
NOW HE WORKED
AND HE SAVED
HIS MONEY
SO THAT ONE DAY
HE MIGHT SEND
MY OLD MAN
OFF TO COLLEGE
TO USE HIS BRAINS
AND NOT HIS HANDS
GRANDMAMA CRIED
WHEN HE SAID GOODBYE
YOU NEVER HEARD
SUCH A LONESOME
SOUND
DADDY HAD HIMSELF
A GOOD JOB IN HOUSTON
ONE MORE ROLLIN'
DOWN
THAT OLD HILLBILLY
HIGHWAY
THAT OLD HILLBILLY
HIGHWAY
THAT OLD HILLBILLY
HIGHWAY
GOES ON AND ON
ON AND ON AND ON
HERE WE GO
4 BAR
BREAK
NOW GRANDADDY
ROLLED OVER
IN HIS GRAVE
THE DAY
THAT I QUIT SCHOOL
I JUST SAT AROUND
THE HOUSE
PLAYIN' MY GUITAR
AND DADDY SAID
I WAS A FOOL
MY MAMA CRIED
WHEN I SAID GOODBYE
YOU NEVER HEARD
SUCH A LONESOME
SOUND
NOW I'M STANDIN'
ON THIS HIGHWAY
AND IF YOU'RE GOIN'
MY WAY
