Kings Highway lyrics

When the time gets right,

I'm gonna pick you up

And take you far away

From trouble, my love.

Under big ol' sky

Out in the field of green

There's gotta be something

Left for us to believe.

Oh, I await the day.

Good fortune comes our way,

And we ride down the Kings Highway.

No you can't hide out

In a six gun town

We want to hold our heads up,

But we gotta stay down.

I don't want to end up

In a room all alone

Don't want to end up someone

That I don't even know.

Oh, I await the day.

Good fortune comes our way,

And we ride down the Kings Highway.

(x2)

Yeah, I await the day.

Good fortune comes our way,

And we ride down the Kings Highway.
