The Highway Kind
By Lucien LaMotte & James Maltese 

CH 
I’m the highway kind
Hit the road ‘n thumb a ride 
Leave your heart with a hole the size
Of that dream you’d thought you’d find

I’d rather ride a roadside breeze
Than let you get wrapped up in me
Girl ya know I’m bound to leave
Don’t waste time askin why 
I’m just the highway kind

V1
You took a chance when you rolled the dice
Looking for sevens in a gambler’s eyes
We danced around it for a night
But I’m no friend to the morning light

CH

V2 
They say my daddy was a rambler too
Guess I was born to wear his walkin shoes
Bounced around broken and bruised
From Bakersfield to Baton Rouge……

Solo

CH
