People don’t pick you up on the blue highway
That blues highway, ah that’s a road you travel alone
And people sure ain't gonna look you up
On that blue highway
That blues highway, keeps on leading you on
I left Chicago
Moved on, flew out to San Francisco
Tryin to lo-oo-ose the-e-em, whoa!
Chicago blues
And if I can’t find my kind of sunshine
In ole California
Just don't want to
Live this ole life of mine
People don't pick you up on that blue highway
That blues highway, that’s a road you travel alone
And people sure ain't gonna look you up
On that blue highway
That blues highway, keeps on lead-el, lid-el, lid-el, lid-el, lid-el, lid-el, lid-el, lid-el, lead you on
Lead-el, lid-el, lid-el, lead
I remember every single one of those lonely nights
Ah, so lonely
Another losin' night, in a losin' fight
All around me
I’ve got no more jobs
Meet no more snobs, on this highway
All I got left to me
Is a sweet ole blues melody
And the people!
They sure don't pick you up, no!
On that blue highway, blue highway, blue highway, blue highway
Blue highway, blue highway, blue highway, blue highway-a-a-ay
Those self same people
They sure ain't gonna stop and look you up, no!
Blue highway, blue highway, blue highway, blue highway
Blue highway, blue highway, blue highway-a-a-a-a-a-way
Leads you on, on, on
Lead-el, lead
Lead-el, lead
Lead-el, lead-el lead you on
Lid-el, lid-el, lid-el, lead
Lid-el, lead
Lid-el, lid-el, lid-el, lid-el, lid-el, lid-el, lid-el, lead
Oh yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Blue highway, yeah, yeah
