I've got the key to the highway
Billed out and bound to go
Gonna leave here runnin'
Walking is most too slow

I'm going back, back to the border
Where I'm better known
I'm going back to the border, baby
And all you can do is mourn

When the moon peeps over the mountain
Yes baby, I'll be on my way
I'm gonna roll this highway until the break of day

When I was so long, so long, baby
Yes baby, I must say goodbye
I'm gonna roam this highway until the day I die

Give me one more kiss, baby
Yes, before I go long
When I leave this time
I ain't comin' back no more
