Carefree Highway Lyrics - All Live - Gordon Lightfoot

Pickin' up the pieces of my sweet shattered dream 

I wonder how the old folks are tonight 

Her name was Ann and I'll be damned if I recall her face 

She left me not knowin' what to do 

Carefree highway, let me slip away on you 

Carefree highway, you seen better days 

The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes 

Carefree highway, let me slip away 

Slip away on you 

Turnin' back the pages to the times I love best 

I wonder if she'll ever do the same 

Now the thing that I call livin' is just bein' satisfied 

With knowin' I got no one left to blame 

Carefree highway, got ta see you my old flame 

Carefree highway, you seen better days 

The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes 

Carefree highway, let me slip away 

Slip away on you 

Searchin' through the fragments of my dream-shattered sleep 

I wonder if the years have closed her mind 

I guess it must be wanderlust or tryin' to get free 

From the good old faithful feelin' we once knew 

Carefree highway, let me slip away on you 

Carefree highway, you seen better days 

The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes 

Carefree highway, let me slip away 

Slip away on you 

Let me slip away on you 

Carefree highway, got ta see you my old flame 

Carefree highway, you seen better days 

The mornin' after blues from my head down to my shoes 

Carefree highway, let me slip away 

Slip away on you
