Living on the Highway Songtext
von John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers
Living on the Highway Songtext
It was 20 years ago, I was about 14 years old
When I first heard that Wolfman′s howl
He sneaked me through the door, there was whiskey on the floor
And the fuzz they were on the prowl
Yes, it seems so long ago, I'm living on the highway now
He′s a giant of a man, He always understands, the very best notes to use
His hand make two of mine, his heart beat right on time
He taught me how to sing the blues
He's the reason why I choose to live on the highway now
I played the blues with Walter, and Muddy pulled me through
I know a Jimmy Rogers song or two
But there's one thing I know, no matter where I go
I can do a little howling too
That′s why I sing these blues, I′m living on the highway now
The years have come and gone, but the blues still go on
I only sing the songs for fun
And if you ask me to, I'll do a song for you, ′cause the women like to see me come
Me and my guitar, my band, we're living on the highway now
When I first heard that Wolfman′s howl
He sneaked me through the door, there was whiskey on the floor

His hand make two of mine, his heart beat right on time
