"The Lost Highway" lyrics - CHRIS HILLMAN & HERB PEDERSEN

I'm a rollin' stone, all alone and lost
For a life of sin I've paid the cost
When I pass by all the people say
Just another guy on the lost highway

Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine
And a woman's love make a life like mine
On the day we met I went astray
And started rollin' down that lost highway

I was just a lad, nearly twenty-two
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you
And now I'm lost, too late to pray
Lord I paid the cost on the lost highway

Now boys don't start to ramblin' round
On this road of sin are you sorrow-bound
Take my advice or you'll curse the day
You started rollin' down that lost highway
