75 Highway

Lyrics for 75 Highway

You know I was standin' on 75 highway Poor Lightnin' tryin' to flag a ride You know I was standin' on 75 highway Poor Lightnin' tryin' to flag a ride Yeah, look like all my friends seem to know me Oh, but they kept passin' me on by You know it look like the bus has done stop runnin' Train don't allow me to ride no more Ticket agent say your ticket done played out, Sam I'm gonna see that you don't ride for sure Standin' on 75 highway Poor Sam tryin' to flag a ride Yeah, you know it look like all of my friends seem to know me Boy, but they passed poor Sam on by You know I walked 75 highway 'Til I wore the bottom off from under my shoe You know I walked 75 highway, darlin' 'Til I wore the bottom off from under my shoe Yes, I said I wasn't gonna quit walkin' Woman, until I catch up, up with you You know I got so horny 'Til I got weak in my knee Didn't nobody still Seem to care nothin' for me You know I was standin' on 75 highway Poor boy tryin' to flag a ride Yeah, you know my little girl she had left me That's the reason I was dissatisfied I got so horny one morning Asked a woman for a date You oughta look at me How I was lookin' that day I asked her for a piece of bread She said go ahead I said, I'm hungry, miss She said, you look like you already been fed, you know 75 Highway Poor old poor Lightnin' tryin' to flag a ride Yeah, you know all my friends seem to know me But they kept passin' me on by Hard highway 75
