Freddie Spruell 4a Highway
My baby woke me up this morning : she told me she's
Joliet bound
She want to find Four‑A Highway : that's the main Highway
out of town
She wouldn't even talk with me : wouldn't even have a
word to say
She asking all her friends around now : where she find
number Four‑A highway
Number Four‑A Highway : that's the main highway out of
town
And she leave out on that highway : I'm sure going to
trail my baby down
I feel like taking my suitcase : setting down on the side
of that lonesome highway
If she leave there between nine and midnight : I'll
overtake her just before day
If I had my machine : I wouldn't worry about leaving town
I'd get on that Four‑A Highway : and God knows I'd roll
that highway down
