Highway Song — текст песни (Stan Ridgway)

Everybody knows a highway song

Sing it with me peopleccit wont be long

Underneath the stars, the devil you say

What you cant sing now, you better throw away



Chorus:

I sing a-la-la-la-la-lalalala

And everybody knows how to sing a highway song







Like a needle in a haystack, Ive been searchin round

I got a bluesteel gun, and an old bloodhound

Slept in a hollow log, make some porcupine wine

The highwayman tells me to walk this time





Now everybody here knows a highway song

Sing it loud, now, Ive been singin so long

Sing a-la-la-la-la-lalalala

And everybody knows how to sing a highway song





« smoke that wood! »

Im screamin down the road, my brain on fire

Im lookin for the scarecrow with a tractor tire

« Ive got myself in dust with a tv eye

And nobody knows but the media guy »





Chorus repeat





Lets hit the highway

Ah-wooooo!
