Joe Peters - The Highway's Got Me Now Lyrics

I've had all the pain and sorrow
One lifetime will allow
Go and tell my darlin'
The highway's got me now

The highway
Has got me now

Wind across some desert
Don't give up the fight
It's a long way to redemption
But I'll be home tonight
Got an aching' in my heart
A ringin' in my ear
And a head full of ravens
They've been after me for years

I've had all the pain and sorrow
One lifetime will allow
Go and tell my darlin'
The highway's got me now

I've always had this feeling
I never could sit still
Take a shot of whiskey just to chase away the chills
Somewhere west of midnight
I'm only passing through
When you stare into the darkness
It stares back into you

And I've had all the pain and sorrow
One lifetime will allow
Go and tell my darlin'
The highway's got me now

The highway's got me now

Now I only have myself to blame
Some sins you can't atone
And I pray that God will know my name
When he calls this poor boy home

I've had all the pain and sorrow
One lifetime will allow
Go and tell my darlin'
The highway's got me now

I had all the pain and sorrow
One lifetime will allow
Go and tell my darlin'
The highway's got me now

The highway's got me now

The highway's got me now

Oh yeah
