It's hard labor and cold beans if you get away
Better tell your home life sweet goodbye
Walk that highway till you die
With the cost of livin', and the price of dying'
You're gonna walk that endless highway
You're gonna walk that endless highway
All you children goin' my way
Look like to me this time I wont be buyin'
I sing by night, wander by day
Who knows what you're apt to find there
Goodbye
Better tell your home life sweet goodbye
When you get half crazy from the August heat or on a frozen
Better tell your home life sweet goodbye
You're gonna walk that endless highway
Walk that highway till you die
I'm on the road and it looks like I'm here to stay
All you children goin' my way
Rotted road, with no one to complain to about your achin' feet
When they get a scapegoat by the throat
Walk that highway till you die
All you children goin' my way
When I see a detour up ahead I leave it far behind
You'll be eatin' from the poison peanut machine
