Lyrics

Lord, I'm so blue
Lord, my baby has gone away
Lord, I'm so blue
Lord, my baby has gone away
Now, but that will be alright
Maybe she'll come back home, someday

I'm going to take highway 61
Man, I'm gonna ride it from coast to coast
I'm going to take highway 61
Man I'm gonna ride it from coast to coast
Now, my baby's goin' up the country
Lord, n' she won't come back no more

I'm going to call all the station
I'm going to stop all train, goin' out
I'm going to call all the station
I'm going to stop all trains goin' out
Because my baby's goin' up the country
Oh lord, n' she can't be found

I'm going to call old england
Just to see if my baby's ov'r there
I'm going to call old england
Just to see if my baby's ov'r there
Now then, if she ain't in england
Lord, I can find in this world somewhere else
