Carefree Highway

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've 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, good to see you my old flame

Carefree highway, you've 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've 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, good to see you my old flame

Carefree highway, you've seen better days

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

Carefree highway, let me slip away

Slip away on you
