Key to the Highway - Brook Benton

I’ve got the key to the highway

Down the road I got to go

I’m gonna leave here runnin'

Walkin' is much too slow

I dreamed when I was a lil' boy

Long long long long time ago

That I’d walk the same highway

That long been lost in the road

So long, so long darlin'

Don’t have time to say goodbye

I guess I’ll walk this ol' highway

Lord, until the day I die

I don’t know where I’m going

I don’t know why I got to go

But I’ve got the key to the highway

That long long lonesome road
