New Highway

Dave Alvin

(Blue Horn Toad Music, BMI, Administered by Bug Music)

Well I'm leavin' this mornin' baby

Gonna ride that new highway

Yeah I'm leavin' this mornin' baby

Gonna ride that new highway

And the more you cry the more you gonna drive me away.I ain't got no family

Ain't got no wife or no child

I ain't got no family

Ain't got no wife, no child

Ain't got no religion, I'm just out here runnin' wild.Well a rich man's got money

And a poor man's only got his soul

Yeah rich man's got the money baby

Poor boy only got his soul

But I got this new highway and I don't care where I go.Well this new highway baby

Takes me from town to town

Yeah this new highway baby

Takes me from town to town

Where some sweet angel always lets me lay down.Well my Kansas woman's got

Skin as white as snow

Yeah my Kansas City baby's got

Skin as white as snow

But my Deep Ellum woman's got hair as black as coal.Well your lovers will leave you baby

Good friends will come and go

Yeah your lovers will leave you baby

Good friends come and go

But this new highway's the best friend I've ever known.Now the gold sun's settin' baby

Silver moon on the rise

Yeah the gold sun's settin' baby

Silver moon on the rise

Gonna ride this highway 'til the day I die.

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
