Too many sweethearts and none of them true

Done too many things that I shouldn't do

I made lots of money all spent the wrong way

Headin' down the wrong highway



I made lots of friends but now they're all gone

Too many mem'ries that still linger on

I had too many drinks both night and day

Headin' down the wrong highway

[ fiddle ]

Too many heartaches and too many tears

Crowded too much in just a few years

I want to go right but I've lost my way

Headin' down the wrong highway



I've lost everything lost all my friends

God only knows how this all will end

Drinking and gambling both night and day

Headin' down the wrong highway
