Lyrics:
Yeah! His guitar slung across his back His dusty boots is his cadillac Flamin` hair just a-blowin` in the wind ain`t seen a bed in so long it`s a sin He left home when he was seventeen The rest of the world he was gonna see And everybody knows the boss a rollin` stone gathers no moss
Now you`d probably a-call him a tramp But it goes a little deeper than that He`s a highway chile Highway Chile
Some people say he had a girl back home who messed around and did her baby wrong They tell it kinda hurt him bad Kinda made him feel pretty sad I couldn`t say what went through his mind Anyway he left the world behind Everybody knows the same old story in love or war you can lose your glory
Now you`d probably a-call him a tramp But I know it goes a little deeper than that He`s a highway chile
Walk on brother
His old guitar slung across his back His dusty boots is his cadillac Flamin` hair just a-blowin` in the wind ain`t seen a bed in so long it`s a sin
Now you`d probably a-call him a tramp But I know it goes a little deeper than that He`s a highway chile
Walk on brother Don`t let no one stop you Highway Child
