about

One of my most-covered songs, this time with Jeff clark and an all star band including Eve Selis and Marc Twang. This is the most roadhouse version of this song so far. Enjoy.

lyrics

It’s a Helluva Highway, where I’ve been. Ain’t no rules of the road. Just keep on movin’. It’s a Helluva Highway, the road I’m on. And in a blink of the twinkle in your eye I’ll be gone. My momma named me Atchison Topeka, but my friends call me Santa Fe And I been runnin’ like a cat on fire ever since I saw the light of day. Never stop anyplace long enough to let my motor cool down. When the sun comes up I’ll be packing my bags and movin’ to another town.
Broke more hearts than Elvis. Burned more bridges than the Viet Cong. But I ain’t tryin’ to hurt nobody. I’m just tryin’ to move along. Got gypsy blood runnin’ through my veins. I’ve tried but I can’t keep still. I’ve lived my life like a runaway train, and I guess I always will.
