Fred Mcdowell - 61 Highway Blues lyrics

rate me

Lord, that 61 Highway

It the longest road I know

Lord, that 61 Highway

It the longest road I know

She run from New York City

Run right by my baby's do'

Well, there some folks said them

Greyhound buses don't run

Lordy, some folks said them

Greyhound buses don't run

Lord, just go to West Memphis, baby

Look down Highway 61

I said, please

I said, please see somebody for me

I said ple-eee-eee-ase

Please see somebody for me

If you see my baby

Tell her she's alright with me

(guitar)

Lord, if I should hap'n a-die, baby

Before you think my time have come

Lord, if I should hap'n a-die, baby

'Fore you think my time have come

I want you bury my body

Down on Highway 1.
