People don't pick you up on the blue highway The blue highway, you travel alone People don't pick you up on the blue highway Yes, the blue highway, you travel alone
I left my home West of San Francisco I was tryin to lose These hometown blues And if I don't find No sunshine Out in California Well I just don't wanna Live this life no more
Well, people don't pick you up on the blue highway Yeah, the blue highway, you travel alone Well, people sure ain't gonna look you up Along the blue highway On the blue highway, you're always alone
Well, now there was a time When I was so lonely Another losin' night, another losin' fight Around me
Well, I take no jibes I meet no more snobs On this highway Yeah, all I got left Is the sweet ole blues and me
Yeah, people don't pick you up on the blue highway Yeah, the blue highway you travel alone Yeah, people sure ain't gonna look you up Along the blue highway Yeah the blue highway is gonna be my home
