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
