Country Road Songtext

von Al Kooper

Take to the highway
Won't you lend me your name?
Your way and my way
Seem to be one and the same

Mamma don't understand it
She wants to know where I've been
I'd have to be some kind of natural born fool
To want to pass that way again but I could feel it
On a country road

Sail on home to Jesus
Won't you good girls and boys?
I'm all in pieces
You can have your own choice

But I can hear a heavenly band full of angels
And they're coming to set me free
I don't know nothing 'bout the why or when
But I can tell that it's bound to be because I could feel it, child, yeah
On a country road

I guess my feet know
Where they want me to go
Walking on a country road

Take to the highway
Won't you lend me your name?
Your way and my way
Seem to be one and the same, child

Mamma don't understand it
She wants to know where I've been
I'd have to be some kind of natural born fool
To want to pass that way again but I could feel it
On a country road

Walk on down, walk on down, walk on down
Walk on down, walk on down a country road
Country road, walking on a country road
