Lyrics:
the highway casts it's spell
Here comes Muddy cross the Mississippi in a cloud of Chicago Blues
Little Walter harpin' like a saxophone, Man he paid some dues
Waiting for summer, his pastures to change
And as the moon rises he sits by his fire
Thinking about women and glasses of beer
And closing his eyes
Waiting for summer, his pastures to change
And as the moon rises he sits by his fire
Thinking about women and glasses of beer
And closing his eyes
boy
When youre flying high on a highway to the sky
I'll be livin by
This promise i have made myself
When i was just a little man
Nothin more than 3
baby blues
Can't sit around and wait to die
Cause I got no more tears to cry
I'm by myself but not alone
No longer waiting by the phone
Don't need no
Came from 13th trenched block
Gotta make it too fast
Smith and Wesson
My close buddies don't fear a nigga's soul
Shootin sprees by gang
We lost our
have to do this
Consumed by hate you hold inside
A car with no breaks on the highway to hell
Scared it's going to destroy you, this side of yourself
Flying in the skies like a blue jay
Booking it from Austin to L.A.
Up in the clouds of my airway
Living the life of a stowaway
I got all that I need
off on it
I know the system is bogus
So I front good as shit
This is highway robbery
I don't trust them one bit
That's why I recorded him
And sampled
I'm on green light, none my wheels rust, highway music
By the way, I heard y'all had fake money in y'all vid, I got a real check
Jeezy had them blues
Just outside of Memphis, Highway 61
Sleepy little town down by the Mississippi river
I'm gonna layout on a houseboat
Until my hide turn brown
Ain't
Well
He took his first release
On a highway
In a 1953 green Chevrolet
An he was carryin and awful load
For just a 15 year old
'Til he laid his mind
don't cry
When we're together
That old time will fly on by
Oh Rosie, don't forget me now
[Chorus]
It's a hard old highway
A long slow burn
I
Out by the big highway
And all through the days
And all through the nights
The cars and trucks rolled on by
And he slept through it all just fine
Every
view
And it's like it's painted by the hand of God, a thousand shades of blue
We got a crayon Mona Lisa hanging crooked on the fridge
Yeah, I swear I
rocks,
Its back to the blacktop and the blues
Oh highway she was one love,
I thought i could be sure of,
But as sure as she found somebody new,
Love always
I parked my car beside the highway and I didn't lock the doors
Left a note there with the keys if it cranks, well friend, she's yours
And I struck
in the sun
Doesn't come the easy way
Shallow and deep, nothing is cheap
Measured by the dues you pay
It takes some doin',
Monkery's a blue highway
a woman by the river
With some fine young handsome man
He's dressed up like a squire
Bootlegged whiskey in his hand
There's a chain gang on the highway
on the Song of the Sea
Take note of what will be gone
In the blink of an eye
The blue, blue water
The bone-white sky
You can set your watch by these
Blue Skies and Green Lights

You know I’ve been thinking since your going your way.
I’m gonna
Waiting for summer, his pastures to change
And as the moon rises he sits by his fire
Thinking about women and glasses of beer
And closing his eyes
There's a rainbow highway to be found.
Leading from your window pane
To a place behind the sun,
Just a step beyond the rain.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way
Just outside of Memphis, Highway 61
Sleepy little town down by the Mississippi river
I'm gonna layout on a houseboat
Until my hide turn brown
Ain't
