Highway 49

Well I'm gonna get up in the morning

Hit the Highway 49

I'm gonna get up in the morning

Hit the Highway 49

I've been looking for my baby

Melv darling down

On my mind

First I'll stop by whiskey store

I'm gonna buy me a jug o'wine

First I'll stop by whiskey store

I'm gonna buy me a jug o'wine

I will hit the highway

They call Highway 49

Gonna be soon in a morning

When I go rollin' in a Jackson town

It will be soon in a morning

When I go rollin' in a Jackson town

I'll be looking for Melv my dear

They said she can't be found

Melv darling my sweet woman

You know she stayed on my mind

Melv darling my sweet woman

You know she stayed on my mind

If I can't find that woman

I will sit out and drink my vine
