Hillbilly Highway

A
My grandaddy 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 the dirt road turned 
into blacktop, Detroit City bound
A
Down that hillbilly highway

On Ttat hillbilly highway
                     D7
That old   Hillbilly highway
            A
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 she waved 
goodbye

Never heard such a lonesome sound

But daddy had himself a good job in 
Houston

One more rollin' down
A
Down that old hillbilly highway

That old hillbilly highway
                   D7
That old Hillbilly highway
            A
Goes on and on

SOLO

Now grandaddy rolled over in his 
grave the day that I quit school

I just sat around the house playin' 
my guitar,

Daddy said I was a fool

My mama cried when I said goodbye,

I never heard such a lonesome sound

Now I'm standin' on this highway and
 if you're going my way

You know where I'm bound

Down that old hillbilly highway

That old hillbilly highway
                   D7
That old Hillbilly highway
            A
Goes on and on
