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
"It's 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 pay the cost of the lost highway
So 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
Started rolling down that lost highway
