Testo Hillbilly Highway - Ricky Skaggs
Testo della canzone Hillbilly Highway (Ricky Skaggs), tratta dall'album Que vienen los Cowboys!
My Granddaddy was a miner
But he finally saw the light
He didn't have much just a beat up truck
And a dream about a better life
Grandmama cried when she waved goodbye
You never heard such a lonesome sound
Pretty soon dirt road turned into blacktop
Detroit city bound
Down that Hillbilly Highway
On that Hillbilly Highway
That old Hillbilly Highway
It goes on and on
Now he worked and saved his money
So that one day he might send
My Daddy off to college
To use his brains and not his hands
Grandmama cried when he said goodbye
You never heard such a lonesome sound
Daddy had himself a good job in Houston
One more road and down
Now Granddaddy rolled over in his grave
The day that I quit school
I just sit around the house
A-playin' my guitar
And Daddy said I was a fool
My Mama cried when I said goodbye
You never heard such a lonesome sound
Now standin' on this highway
And if you're goin' my way
You know where I'm bound
