Lyrics
Highway 61 Blues Take Highway 61 way down south to New Orleans Let’s take Highway 61 way down south to New Orleans Sunlight’s (shinin’) through the windshield Can’t you the smell the gasoline? We could have a good time baby, just smoking cheap cigars We could have a good time baby, just smoking cheap cigars Ramblin through all the Delta Down to Preservation Hall Solo We’ll stop off at Memphis and hear some good ol’ Jerry Lee We’ll stop off at Memphis and hear some good ol’ Jerry Lee I’ll dress up in my three-piece suit And you can wear your diamond ring Solo Don’t stay long at the crossroads where Mr. Johnson sold his soul Don’t stay long at the crossroads where Mr. Johnson sold his soul Better get down to the Gospel Church Get some Jesus on Hale Road I wakeup every morning baby and I thank God I’m alive I wakeup every morning baby and I thank God I’m alive I love to drink the water baby But the well is running dry Solos © 2008 Written by Dave Tough Contact: Dave Tough * 5801 Tee Pee Trace * Cane Ridge, Tennessee 615.554.6693 www.davetough.com
