I got the key to the highway
Dear Lord, I'm bound to go
I'm gonna roam this highway until the day I die

Yes, when the moon peep o'er the mountain
Honey, I'll be on my way
I'm gonna roam this highway until the day I die

Just give me one, one more kiss, babe
Baby, just before I go
Because I'm leavin' this mornin'; I won't be back no more

So I said, "So long, so long, baby
Honey, I must say goodbye
'Cause when I leave this time, I won't be back no mo'"

Give me the key, key to the highway
I'm movin' on down the line
'Cause when I leave this time, I won't be back no more

Just give me one, one last kiss, baby
Hold me in your lovin' arms
Because when I leave this time, I won't be back no more
