Just a rolling stone all alone and lost

For a life of sin I have paid the cost

When I pass by all the people say

Just another guy down the lost highway



I was just a lad nearly twenty two

Not bad not good just a kid like you

But now I'm lost too late to pray

Lord I'm rolling down that lost highway

[ steel ]

Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine

And a woman's lies make a life like mine

Oh the day we met I went astray

I started rolling down that lost highway



Now boys don't start to rambling round

On this road of sin or you're sorrow bound

Take my advice or you curse the day

You started rolling down that lost highway
