Freddie King Living On The Highway Lyrics

Living On The Highway Lyrics

Living on the Highway L Russell/D Nix

It was twenty years ago, I was
about fourteen years old,
When I first heard that Wolfman's howl.
He
sneaked me through the door, there was whisky on the floor,
And the fuzz
they were on the prowl
It seems so long ago,
I'm living on the Highway
now

He's a giant of a man, He always understands
The very best notes
to use
His hand make two of mine, his heart beat right on time
He taught
me how to sing the blues
He's the reason why I choose to live on the highway
now

I played the blues with Walter, and Muddy pulled me through
I know
a Jimmy Rogers song or two
But there's one thing I know, no matter where I
go
I can do a little howling too
That's why I sing these blues, I'm
living on the highway now

The years have come and gone but the blues
still go on
I only sing my songs for fun
If you ask me to, I'll do a song
for you,
'Cause the women like to see me come
Me and my guitar, my band,
we're living on the highway now
