Intro: A Asus2 Dsus2 (x4)
US highway from north to south
It's history breathing
Get out from under the gun
And drive down Highway 61
Hannibal's son saw the Gold Rush
Saw the Civil War done
Then settled down some
Out on Highway 61
There's no reason to feel downhearted
There's music in the wheels there to be found
Goodnight Irene in the prison walls
Killed A man
And lived to sing about it all
Stella-12 out on Highway 61
The immigrant son left the mining town
Electrified the traditional
And had it out on Highway 61
REPEAT CHORUS
