Lyrics for Song: Carefree Highway
Lyrics for Album: Sundown [1974]
Picking up the pieces of my sweet shattered dream
I wonder how the old folks are to night
Her name was Ann and I'll be damned if I recall her face
She left me not knowing what to do
Carefree Highway, let me slip away on you
Carefree Highway, you seen better days
The morning after blues from my head down to my shoes
Carefree Highway, let me slip away, slip away on you
Turning back the pages to the times I love best
I wonder if she'll ever do the same
Now the thing that I call living is just being satisfied
With knowing I got no one left to blame
Carefree Highway, got to see you my old flame
Carefree Highway, you seen better days
The morning after blues from my head down to my shoes
Carefree Highway, let me slip away, slip away on you
Searching through the fragments of my dream shattered sleep
I wonder if the years have closed her mind
I guess it must be wanderlust or trying to get free
From the good old faithful feeling we once knew
Carefree Highway, let me slip away on you
Carefree Highway, you seen better days
The morning 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 to see you my old flame
Carefree Highway, you seen better days
The morning after blues from my head down to my shoes
Carefree Highway, let me slip away, slip away on you
