Bound down that long, lonesome highway just as far as I can go,
'Til I outrun your memory.
I can't go home 'cause I can't face another day alone.
Now that you're gone this ain't no place for me.
chorus
I want to start all over new
But I can't lose these lonesome highway blues
Down that long, lonesome highway just as far as I can go,
'Til I outrun your memory.
Bound down that long, lonesome highway just as fast as I can fly.
Just wanna go to someplace you won't be.
I'm movin' on to a new place and hold my head up high,
Where no one knows what you done to me.
chorus
A thousand miles between us now,
And still some how these blues'll track me down.
Down that long, lonesome highway just as far as I can go,
'Til I outrun your memory.
I'm bound down that long lonesome highway 'cause it's the only place I know,
Where there ain't no clouds hangin' over me.
Leave me alone 'cause it's a long way no matter where I go,
Nothin' but blues as far as I can see.
chorus
I wish I had you back again,
But I know I can't so here I go again.
Down that long, lonesome highway just as far as I can go,
'Til I outrun your memory.
