Alonzo "Lonnie" Johnson (February 8, 1899 – June 16, 1970) was an American blues and jazz singer/guitarist and songwriter who pioneered the role of jazz guitar and is recognized as the first to play single-string guitar solos. Johnson was not only one of the few black blues musicians invited to be 'guest featured' on a number of jazz recording sessions, he was also one of the only classic 1920's blues artists to have a revived a high-charting career after WWII. more »

Well I'm travelin' light baby, come on and go with me.
Well I'm travelin' light baby, come on an' go with me.
Hey where the seven longest rivers empties into the deep blue sea.

I've got a long road to travel, come on and let's have some fun.
Gotta long road to travel, come on baby, let's have some fun.
Way down the highway I can show you how love is really done.

I've got my clothes all packed an' my car ‘s all filled with gas.
Got my clothes all packed an' my car ‘s all filled with gas.
We'll take Route 66 and drive as long as it lasts.

And when the gas gets low we'll stop and get some more.
When the gas gets low we'll stop and get some more.
Gotta long road to travel ‘n I need you by my side you know?

Well I'm heading for the city they call the “Land Of Dreams”.
Yes, heading for the city they call the “Land Of Dreams”.
It's my hometown and the destination is dear old New Orleans.

We'll do our lovin' by the moonlight lay up in the Chevrolet.
Do our lovin' by the moonlight lay up in the Chevrolet.
Fine body ta make you goofy while you rock ya' blues away.
