Lyrics

I've got the blues for the highway Rambling blues, I got to go I better start running Because walking for me is much too slow Oh, yes it is I'm undecided whether to go or stay It's true I love you baby but I can not make it this way Oh, baby, I just can't make it this way Oh no, I can't You've got me worried Every night and day Oh yes, I do now Well I'm just plain and tired sick of your funky ways Yeah hey, hey hey hey, hey hey hey, baby Tell them about it I understand you Yeah, tell them about it Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah he he, oh So long baby Baby, goodbye I'm gonna start rambling, gonna be rambling till the day I die Yeah, baby, gonna ramble ramble ramble ramble Get into something until the day I die, yes I am Oh, so long Oh, so long Tell them about it Tell them about it right now So long baby, oh yeah Tell the story, rambling I'm gonna be rambling 'Till the day I die, yeah, oh yeah You got it baby, you got it So long baby, oh
