Hollies - Take My Love and Run "1st version" (Bria lyrics

(words & music by pomus - shuman)

It’s a long lonely highway when you’re travellin’ all alone

And it’s a mean old world when you got no-one to call your own

And you pass through towns too small to even have a name, oh yes

But you gotta keep on goin’, on that road to nowhere

Gotta keep on goin’, though there’s no-one to care

Just keep movin’ down the line

It’s a long lonely highway without her by my side

And it’s a trail full of teardrops that keep on being cried

My heart’s so heavy it’s a low down dirty shame oh yes

You gotta keep on goin’, on that road to nowhere

Gotta keep on goin’, though there’s no-one to care

Just keep movin’ down the line

I gotta rock for my pillow ’neath a weeping willow

And the cool grass for my bed

My drinking water’s muddy so don’t you tell me buddy

That I wouldn’t be better off dead

It’s a long lonely highway gettin’ longer all the time

And if she don’t come and get me

Well, I’m gonna lose my mind

So if you read about me tell her she’s the one to blame, oh yes

You gotta keep on goin’, on that road to nowhere

Gotta keep on goin’, though there’s no-one to care

Just keep movin’ down the line

Movin’ down the line

Movin’ down the line
