My grandaddy was a miner, but he finally saw the light | |
He didn't have much, just a beat-up truck and a dream about a better life | |
Grandmama cried when she waved goodbye, never heard such a lonesome sound | |
Pretty soon the dirt road turned into blacktop, detroit city bound | |
Down that hillbilly highway | |
That hillbilly highway | |
Hillbilly highway | |
Goes on and on | |
He worked and saved his money so that one day he might send | |
My old man off to college, to use his brains and not his hands | |
Grandmama cried when she waved goodbye, never heard such a lonesome sound | |
But daddy had himself a good job in houston, one more rollin' down | |
Down that hillbilly highway | |
That hillbilly highway | |
Hillbilly highway | |
Goes on and on | |
Grandaddy rolled over in his grave the day that i quit school | |
I just sat around the house playin' my guitar, daddy said i was a fool | |
My mama cried when i said goodbye, i never heard such a lonesome sound | |
Now i'm standin' on this highway and if you're going my way | |
You know where i'm bound |
