[Chorus 1]
People don't pick you up
On the blue highway
The blue highway
You travel alone

[Chorus 1]
And people don't pick you up
On the blue highway
Yes, the blue highway
You travel alone

[Verse 1]
I left my home
West of San Francisco
I was tryin' to lose
These hometown blues

[Verse 2]
And if I don't find
No sunshine
Out in California
Well I just don't wanna
Live this life no more

[Chorus 1]
Well, people don't pick you up
On the blue highway
Yeah, the blue highway
You travel alone
[Chorus 2]
Well, people sure ain't gonna look you up
Along the blue highway
On the blue highway
You're always alone

[Verse 3]
Well, now there was a time
When I was so lonely
Another losin' night, a losin' fight
Around me

[Verse 4]
Well, I take no jibes
I meet no more snobs
On this highway
Yeah, all I got left
Is the sweet ole blues and me

[Chorus 1]
Yeah the people don't pick you up
On the blue highway
Yeah, the blue highway
You travel alone

[Chorus 3]
Yeah the people sure ain't gonna look you up
Along the blue highway
Yeah the blue highway
Is gonna be my home
[Outro]
Well, alright
Ooh ahh
