Freddie Spruell — 4a Highway lyrics

Lyrics

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
