Well I'm going to get up in the morning

Get to highway 49

Well about my sweet woman

Ooh well well she don't pay poor Joey no mind

Well if you ever had the blues

Get to highway 49

Well about sweet woman

Ooh well boys she trying to throw poor Joey down

I'm going to wake well I'm going to get in the morning

I believe I'll dust my bed

Going down the highway 49

Ooh well boys I be rocking to my head

Blues this morning

I'll be rolling in Jackson town

Lord I'm tired of laying around

Ooh well boys on highway 49
