The Highway Song Lyrics

The Highway Song lyrics

FRASER/KOSSOFF









So we started in the cornfield 

and I know we did not slack 

we got everything in order 

but we forgot to bring the bucket back 

the foreman he went crazy 

and ran around the field 

said we must be lazy 

had to be seen to be believed 

seen to be believed. 



But it was a long way 

from this highroad 

it was a far away from here. 



The farmer had a daughter 

and she worked at the wishing well 

put one leg in the water 

'til she found the mission bell 

the old man went crazy 

and ran to get his gun 

we had a bad time explaining 

we were just having drunken fun 

Just having drunken fun. 



But it was a long way 

from this high road, Oh! 

it was a long way from here 

so we walked along this road 

just tellin' stories as we go 

We just walk along. 

  



Well the farmer had a daughter 

and she did not speak a word 

we used to kiss her in the orchard 

till one morning we were overheard 

the old man he went crazy 

running around the field 

said we must be crazy 

had to be seen to be believed 

seen to be believed
