Steve Earle - Steve's Last Ramble lyrics

rate me

I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' round

Hangin' up my highway shoes

Lately when I walk they make a hollow sound

And they carry me away from you

Every night I lay my body down

My empty arms just leave me blue

So I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' 'round

And find my way back home to you

I have always been the travelin' kind

A million miles behind me now

I kept on followin' that thin white line

But now I want to turn around

I only lived to hear that highway sound

High and lonesome - low and blue

Now I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' 'round

And find my way back home to you

So say goodbye to all my ramblin' pals

Ol' Highway Dave and Southside Sue

I don't believe they'll miss me anyhow

What's one less wayward soul or two

Down the road they'll pass the jug around

And they'll sing them lonesome highway blues

But me I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' 'round

And find my way back home to you
