C
Mary took to running with a traveling man
Left her momma crying with her head in her hands
F C
Such a sad case so broken hearted
She said momma I got to go I gotta get out of here
I gotta get out of town I'm tired of hanging around
F C
I gotta roll on between the ditches
C
It's just an ordinary story bout the way things go
Round and round nobody knows
F C
But the highway goes on forever
F C
That old highway rolls on forever
C
Lord she never would have done it if she hadn't got drunk
If she hadn't started running with a traveling man
F C
If she hadn't started taking those crazy chances
C
She said daughter let me tell you bout the traveling kind
Everywhere he's going such a very short time
F C
He'll be long gone before you know it
F C
He'll be long gone before you know it
Am G7
She said never have I known it when it felt so good
F C
Never have I knew it when I knew I could
Am G7
Never have I done it when it looked so right
F
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
C
This is down in the swampland anything goes
It's alligator bait and the bars don't close
F C
It's the real thing down in Louisiana
Did you ever see a Cajun when he really got mad
When he really got trouble like a daughter gone bad
F C
It gets real hot down in Louisiana
The stranger better move it or he's gonna get killed
He's gonna have to get it or a shotgun will
F C
It ain't no time for lengthy speeches
F C
There ain't no time for lengthy speeches
Am G7
She said never have I known it when it felt so good
F C
Never have I knew it when I knew I could
Am G7
Never have I done it when it looked so right
F
Leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight
Am G7
She said never have I known it when it felt so good

It's just an ordinary story bout the way things go
Round and round nobody knows
