[Verse 1]

I'm a rolling stone, all alone and lost

For a life of sin, I have paid the cost

When I pass by, all the people say

"Just another boy down the lost highway"


[Verse 2]

Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine

And a woman's lies make a life like mine

Oh, the day we met, I went astray

I started rollin' down that lost highway


[Verse 3]

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've paid the cost on the lost highway


[Verse 4]

Now, boys, don't start your ramblin' round

On this road of sin or you're sorrow bound

Take my advice or you'll curse the day

You started rollin' down that lost highway
