I'm a rollin' stone, all alone and lost
From a life of sin, well, I paid the cost
When I pass by all the people gonna say
There goes that guy on the lost highway
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine
And a women's laugh makes a life like mine
On the day we met I went a stray
Started rollin', rollin' down on the lost highway
I was just a kid, nearly twenty two
Not good or bad but just a kid like you
And now I'm lost and it's too late to pray
I paid the costs on that lost highway
Now boys don't start, start to ramble round
This road of sin, are you trouble bound?
Take my word or your gonna curse the day
You started rollin', rollin' down that lost highway
Started rollin', rollin' down that lost highway
