Blue Cheer - Hiway Man Lyrics

(Norman Mayall, Gary L. Yoder, & G.R. Grelecki)

Yes I am the Hiway Man

I played my hand and I won

Rode on down from Richmond

Join the other side

War was raging out 1865

Riding, cloak is flying

Slapping in he breeze.





Money, give me all you have

Maybe I'll take your life

Cause the Hiway Man cuts quickly

Through the night.





(Hate myself, choose the road

Won't you fall this way

Captain Walter understands

Wash your feet and pray.)





Money, give me all you have

Cause the Hiway Man cuts quickly through the night.





Riding down a country road

I race the silver moon

Chasin' shadows 'cross the field

Dogs coming soon

Kick my horse and wail out loud

The fog was rolling by

The dust did blow, the gold was mined

The lady, heard her cry.





Money, give me all you have

Maybe I'll save your life

Cause the Hiway Man's not sure how long to last.





Sing easy towards the sun

You know we'll find our way

(Gotta find my way)(HA HA)

I got to hide away (HA HA)

(Got to hide away)

When the lightning strikes

You know we'll find our way

(Got to find my way)

Ooooo!





Money, give me all you have

Cause the Hiway Man comes soon

Cause the Hiway Man cuts quickly

Through the night.





Whooo, yeeeeeaaahh, ow, bye-bye, whoo, see you later, ooohhh,

Woooo, woooo-woooo, wooo-wooo.
