I'm a rolling stone, all alone and lost For a life of sin I have paid the cost When I pass by all the people say I'm just another guy on the lost highway
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine And a woman's lies make a life like mine Oh the day we met I went astray I started rolling down that lost highway
I was just a lad nearly twenty two Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you And now I'm lost, too late to pray Lord, I paid the cost on the lost highway
Now, boys, don't start to rambling round On this road of sin are you sorrow bound Take my advice or you'll curse the day You started rolling down that lost highway
