My baby woke up this mornin'
And she said she highway bound
Yes, my baby woke up this mornin'
An she said she highway bound
She wanna find Number 51
That the main highway outta town
She wouldn't even talk to me
Didn't have a word to say
She wouldn't even talk to me
Didn't have a word to say
She asked all her friends
Where she could find 51 Highway
Tell her, I feel like takin' my suitcase
An sittin' down on a lonesome highway
I feel like takin' my suitcase
An sittin' down on a lonesome highway
So (she) if she leave out on Number 51
I'll overtake her just 'fore day
If I had my machine
I wouldn't worry about her leavin' town
If I had my machine
I wouldn't worry about her leaving town
'Cause I'd hit that 51 Highway
Lord know, I'd roll that highway down.
