South On Highway 6
I live by the old road, used to be the main road
By the old gas station, everybody used to stop
Used to be somebody, used to be a main man
Someone you could count on south on Highway 6
And I knew all the truck drivers and all the tour bus drivers
Even the drunk drivers and the restless souls
Every travelling salesman used to come through here
The last one who did, he took my Annie with him
My heart can't stop from aching from too many times of breaking
And my hands can't stop from shaking anymore
I am just an old man, I used to be a proud man
Hard-working and honest for most of the time
I used to have a home here, and our door was always open
To wayward strangers and your friends
And I can see the new road way off in the distance
Just a band of traffic, sorrow, lies
I used to be somebody, used to be a main man
Down on the border, south on Highway 6
I used to be somebody, used to be a main man
Down on the border, south on Highway 6
By the old gas station, everybody used to stop
Used to be somebody, used to be a main man
Someone you could count on south on Highway 6
And I knew all the truck drivers and all the tour bus drivers
Even the drunk drivers and the restless souls
Every travelling salesman used to come through here
The last one who did, he took my Annie with him
My heart can't stop from aching from too many times of breaking
And my hands can't stop from shaking anymore
I am just an old man, I used to be a proud man
Hard-working and honest for most of the time
I used to have a home here, and our door was always open
To wayward strangers and your friends
And I can see the new road way off in the distance
Just a band of traffic, sorrow, lies
I used to be somebody, used to be a main man
Down on the border, south on Highway 6
I used to be somebody, used to be a main man
Down on the border, south on Highway 6
