[Verse 1]
Yeah, his guitar slung across his back
His dusty boots is his Cadillac
Flamin' hair just a blowin' in the wind
Ain't seen a bed in so long it's a sin
He left home when he was seventeen
The rest of the world he had longed to see

A rolling stone who gathers no moss
But you'd probably call him a tramp

But I know it goes a little deeper than that
He's a highway chile
[Outro]
Walk on brother
Don't let no one stop you
Highway chile
Yeah yeah yeah
Highway chile
Rolling stone
Go on down the highway
Highway chile
Yeah yeah yeah
Highway chile
