Lyrics

[00:14.73] Yeah, his guitar slung across his back.
[00:18.91] His dusty boots is his Cadillac.
[00:22.27] Flamin' hair just a blowin in the wind
[00:25.90] Ain't seen a bed in so long it's a sin.
[00:29.34] He left home when he was seventeen
[00:32.60] The rest of the world he had longed to see.
[00:36.26] But everybody knows the Boss.
[00:39.51] A rolling stone who gathers no moss.
[00:43.08] But you'd probably call him a tramp.
[00:46.51] But it goes a little deeper than that
[00:49.28] He's a...
[00:52.63] highway chile, yeah.
[00:56.55] Now some people say he had a girl back home
[01:00.79] Who messed around and did him pretty wrong
[01:04.15] They tell me it kinda hurt him bad,
[01:07.48] Kinda made him feel pretty sad.
[01:10.99] I couldn't say what went through his mind
[01:14.25] Anyway, he left the world behind.
[01:17.89] But everybody knows the same old story,
[01:21.44] In love and war you can't lose in glory.
[01:24.79] Now you'd probably call him a tramp.
[01:27.79] But I know it goes a little deeper than that
[01:30.97] He's a...
[01:34.28] highway chile
[01:37.90] Walk on brother, yeah.
[02:13.14] His old guitar slung across his back,
[02:16.46] His dusty boots is his Cadillac.
[02:19.85] Flamin' hair just a blowin in the wind,
[02:23.33] Ain't seen a bed in so long it's a sin.
[02:26.76] Now you may call him a tramp.
[02:30.23] But I know it goes a little deeper than that,
[02:32.81] He's a...
[02:36.02] highway chile
[02:39.64] Walk on brother, yeah.
[02:42.82] Don't let no one stop you.
[02:46.55] Highway Chile. Yeah yeah yeah!
