Well, I wake up late in the afternoon,. I eat my eggs to the evening news,. and the sun's gone down 'fore I find my shoes,. Music fills the air, but it's all the blues..
Just out of the infantry this morning,. I had to pay my dues across the sea,. But no one back in boot camp ever warned me,. What the readjustment blues would do to me..
This song appears on four albums, and was first released on the I Want To Live album, and has also been released on the Changes, Reflections: Songs of Love and Life and The Country Roads Collection albums..
I've been out on this highway now. Five days in a row. My words all run together. My feet are movin' slow. Ive got to stop and eat. While its still light.
Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight. Gonna grab some afternoon delight. My motto's always been, when it's right it's right. Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night.
Been out on this highway now five days in a row. My words all run together and my feet are movin' slow. I've got to stop and eat while it's still light.
