[Verse 1]
I got theA7 key to theE7 highway,
And I'm D7booked out and bound to D7go
I'm gonna A7leave here runnin',
E7 'Cause walkin' is most too A7slow E7
[Verse 2]
I'm goin' A7down on the E7border,
Now D7where I'm better D7known
Cause A7woman you don't do nothin',
E7 But drive a good man 'way from A7home E7
[Verse 3]
Now when the A7moon creeps over the E7mountain,
D7I'll be on my D7way
Now I'm gonna A7walk this old highway,
E7 Until the break of A7day E7

A7Come here, sweet E7mama,
Now and D7help me with this heavy D7load
I am A7due in West Texas,
E7 And I've got to get on the A7road E7
[Verse 5]
I'm A7goin' to West E7Texas,
I'm goin' D7down behind the D7sun
I'm gonna A7ask the good Lord
E7 What evil have I A7done E7
