I Got the Key - John Lee Hooker

I got the key to the highway

Dear Lord, I’m bound to go

I’m gonna roam this highway until the day I die

Yes, when the moon peep o’er the mountain

Honey, I’ll be on my way

I’m gonna roam this highway until the day I die

Just give me one, one more kiss, babe

Baby, just before I go

Because I’m leavin' this mornin';

I won’t be back no more

So I said, «So long, so long, baby

Honey, I must say goodbye

'Cause when I leave this time, I won’t be back no mo'»

Give me the key, key to the highway

I’m movin' on down the line

'Cause when I leave this time, I won’t be back no more

Just give me one, one last kiss, baby

Hold me in your lovin' arms

Because when I leave this time, I won’t be back no more
