(featuring chet atkins) written by: neil diamond and harlan howard So long big city It's time to say goodbye I'm longing for those country roads I need to see the sky Think I'll take a swing down south Visit tennessee See if that girl annie Still remembers me Gonna take that blue highway And leave this sorry town Stayed too longbut now I'm gone And I know where I'm bound I don't wanna take the interstate It represents all the things I hate I'm rolling down that blue highway So long confusion It's time to slow things down Say goodbye to my old friends Ease on out of town I made me some money here I paid for every day And every mile just makes me smile 'cause I've made my getaway Gonna take that blue highway And leave this sorry town Stayed too longbut now I'm gone And I know where I'm bound I've had it up to here with worry From now on I'm in no hurry Rolling down that blue highway I'll be rolling down that blue highway You can find me on that blue highway
