Band The Endless Highway Lyrics

Endless Highway Lyrics

G			d

 Take a silver dollar and put it in your pocket,

 A		      e

 Never let it slip away.

 G		 d		  a

 Always be a man, not a boy gone astray.

 D	     d/c#	 bm bm/a e		     a

 When ya get half cra-zy	    from the august heat

 D	 d/c#		 bm  bm/a

 Or on a frozen, rotted road

 E

 With no one to complain to about your achin' feet.

 

 (chorus:)

 A	  g	   d		     a

 You're gonna walk that endless highway,

 D		 e		   a

 Walk that high-way till you die.

 G    d		    a

 All you children goin' my way,

 D		      e 	      a

 Better tell your home-life sweet goodbye.

 

 When i see a detour up ahead,

 Well, i leave it far behind,

 Who knows what you're apt to find there.

 With the cost of livin, and the price of dyin',

 Well it look like t'me this time i wont be buyin'

 

 (chorus)

 

 When they get a scapegoat by the throat,

 It's hard labour and cold beans.

 If ya get away real quick,

 You'll be eatin from the poison peanut machine.

 Well, i sing by night, wander by day.

 I'm on the road and it looks like i'm here to stay.

 

 (chorus)
