Lyrics

[00:15.64] Yeah, his guitar slung across his back.
[00:19.20] His dusty boots is his Cadillac.
[00:22.51] Flamin' hair just a blowin in the wind
[00:25.81] Ain't seen a bed in so long it's a sin.
[00:29.50] He left home when he was seventeen
[00:31.23] The rest of the world he had longed to see.
[00:36.30] But everybody knows the Boss.
[00:39.74] A rolling stone who gathers no moss.
[00:43.32] But you'd probably call him a tramp.
[00:46.58] But it goes a little deeper than that
[00:49.40] He's a...
[00:52.58] highway chile, yeah.
[00:56.33] Now some people say he had a girl back home
[01:00.69] Who messed around and did him pretty wrong
[01:04.13] They tell me it kinda hurt him bad,
[01:07.81] Kinda made him feel pretty sad.
[01:11.12] I couldn't say what went through his mind
[01:14.61] Anyway, he left the world behind.
[01:17.92] But everybody knows the same old story,
[01:21.38] In love and war you can't lose in glory.
[01:24.85] Now you'd probably call him a tramp.
[01:27.71] But I know it goes a little deeper than that
[01:31.08] He's a...
[01:34.45] highway chile
[01:38.07] Walk on brother, yeah.
[02:07.53]
[02:13.45] His old guitar slung across his back,
[02:16.57] His dusty boots is his Cadillac.
[02:20.32] Flamin' hair just a blowin in the wind,
[02:23.50] Ain't seen a bed in so long it's a sin.
[02:27.06] Now you may call him a tramp.
[02:30.13] But I know it goes a little deeper than that,
[02:32.77] He's a...
[02:36.53] highway chile
[02:36.96] Walk on brother, yeah.
[02:43.92] Don't let no one stop you.
[02:46.67] Highway Chile. Yeah yeah yeah!
