I'm a rolling stone
All alone and lost
For a life of sin
I have paid the cost
When I pass by
All the people say
Just another guy
On the lost highway
Just a deck of cards
And a jug of wine
And a woman's lies
Makes a life like mine
Oh the day we met
I went astray
I started rolling down
That lost highway
I was just a lad
Nearly twenty-two
Neither good nor bad
Just a kid like you
And now I'm lost
Too late to pray
Lord I take a cost
Oh the lost highway
Now boys don't start
To rambling round
On this road of sin
Are you sorrow bound
Take my advice
Or you'll curse the day
You started rolling down
That lost highway
