i'm a rolling stone all alone and lost
for a life of sin i have paid the cost
when i pass by all the people say
just another guy on the lost highway
just a deck of cards and a jug of wine
and a woman's lies
make a life like mine
oh the day we met i went astray
i started rollin down
that lost highway
i was just a lad nearly twenty two
neither good nor bad
just a kid like you
and now i'm lost too late to pray
lord i've paid the cost
on the lost highway
now boys don't start
your ramblin round
on this road of sin or
you're sorrow bound
take my advice or you'll curse the day
you started rollin
down that lost highway
