61 Highway Blues

Lord, that 61 Highway, it the longest road I know
Lord, that 61 Highway, it the longest road I know
She run from New York City, run right by my baby’s do'
Well, there some folks said them Greyhound buses don’t run
Lordy, some folks said them Greyhound buses don’t run
Lord, just go to West Memphis, baby, look down Highway 61
I said, please, please see somebody for me
I said please, please see somebody for me
If you see my baby tell her she’s alright with me
Lord, if I should happen a-die, baby before you think my time have come
Lord, if I should happen a-die, baby 'fore you think my time have come
I want you bury my body down on Highway 61
