Endless Highway (Studio Version)

One, two, one, two

Take a silver dollar, put it in your pocket

Never let it slip away

Always be a man, not a boy astray

When you get half crazy from the August heat

Or on a frozen, rotted road

With no one to complain to about your achin' feet

You're gonna walk that endless highway

Walk that highway till you die

All you children goin' my way

Better tell your home life sweet goodbye

When I see a detour up ahead, well I leave it far behind

Who knows what you're apt to find, yeah

With the cost of livin' and the price of dyin'

It looks like to me, this time, I won't be buyin'

You're gonna walk that endless highway

Walk that highway till you die

And all you children goin' my way

Better tell your home life sweet goodbye

When they get a scapegoat by the throat

It's hard labor and cold beans

If you get away quick, you'll be eatin' from the poison peanut machines

And I sing by night, wander by day

I'm on the road and it looks like I'm here to stay, yeah

You're gonna walk that endless highway

Walk that highway till you die

And all you children goin' my way

Better tell your home life sweet, sweet goodbye
