(Curtis Leach)
Headed down on the open highway only a fool would travel my way
Run back to your mama while you can
You can't turn my wandering feet down into a dead end street
You can't win the love of a highway man.
A highway man gotta feel the wind blowin' in his face
A highway man can never settle down no place
A highway man gotta keep a living by the code
His only love is a love of the open road.
--- Instrumental ---
Don't tell me you're gonna miss me I not wanna take you with me
I feel bad about leavin' you behind
I don't know where this road might lead to I only know I feel I need to
Travel alone and see what I can find.
A highway man gotta feel the wind blowin' in his face
A highway man can never settle down no place
A highway man gotta keep a living by the code
His only love is a love of the open road.
Baby, I'll always be a highway man...
