Highway 51 runs right by my baby´s door Highway 51 runs right by my baby´s door But won´t get the girl I´m loving
Won´t go down Highway 51 no more.
Well, I know that highway like I know my hand Yes, I know that highway like I know the back of my hand Running from up Wisconsin Way down to no man´s land.
Well, if I should die before my time should come And if I should die before my time should come Won´t you bury my body Out on Highway 51?
Highway 51 runs right by my baby´s door I said, Highway 51 runs right by my baby´s door But won´t get the girl I´m loving Won´t go down Highway 51 no more.
