It was tGwenty years ago, I was about fourteen years old,

When I fDirst heard that Wolfman's howl.

He sneGaked me through the door, there was whisky on the floor,

And the fDuzz they were on the prowl

It seBb7ems so long aA7go,

I'm lG7ivingG#7 on the A7Highway Dnow

He's a gGiant of a man, He always understands

The vDery best notes to use

His hGand make two of mine, his heart beat right on time

He tDaught me how to sing the blues

Bb7He's the reason whyA7 I choose to G7liveG#7 on tA7he highway nowD G7

I plGayed the blues with Walter, and Muddy pulled me through

I kDnow a Jimmy Rogers song or two

But there's Gone thing I know, no matter where I go

I can dDo a little howling too

That's wBb7hy I sing these A7blues, I'm lG7iviG#7ng on tA7he highway nowD

The yGears have come and gone but the blues still go on

I oDnly sing my songs for fun

If you aGsk me to, I'll do a song for you,

'Cause the wDomen like to see me come

Bb7Me and my guiA7tar, my band, we're lG7iving G#7on tA7he highway nowD
