Lyrics
My Grandaddy Was A Miner
But He Finally Saw The Light
He Didn't Have Much
Just A Beatup Truck And A Dream About A Better Life
Grandmama Cried When She Waved Goodbye
Never Heard Such A Lonesome Sound
Pretty Soon The Dirt Road Turned Into Blacktop
Detroit City Bound
Down That Old Hillbilly Highway
On That Hillbilly Highway
That Old Hillbilly Highway
Goes On And On
He Worked And Saved His Money So That One Day He Might Send
My Old Man Off To College
To Use His Brains And Not His Hands
Grandmama Cried When She Waved Goodbye
Never Heard Such A Lonesome Sound
But Daddy Had Himself A Good Job In Houston
One More Rollin' Down
Down That Old Hillbilly Highway
That Old Hillbilly Highway
That Old Hillbilly Highway
Goes On And On
Grandaddy Rolled Over In His Grave The Day That I Quit School
I Just Sat Around The House Playin' My Guitar
Daddy Said I Was A Fool
My Mama Cried When I Said Goodbye
I Never Heard Such A Lonesome Sound
Now I'm Standin' On This Highway And If You're Going My Way
You Know Where I'm Bound
But He Finally Saw The Light
He Didn't Have Much
Just A Beatup Truck And A Dream About A Better Life
Grandmama Cried When She Waved Goodbye
Never Heard Such A Lonesome Sound
Pretty Soon The Dirt Road Turned Into Blacktop
Detroit City Bound
Down That Old Hillbilly Highway
On That Hillbilly Highway
That Old Hillbilly Highway
Goes On And On
He Worked And Saved His Money So That One Day He Might Send
My Old Man Off To College
To Use His Brains And Not His Hands
Grandmama Cried When She Waved Goodbye
Never Heard Such A Lonesome Sound
But Daddy Had Himself A Good Job In Houston
One More Rollin' Down
Down That Old Hillbilly Highway
That Old Hillbilly Highway
That Old Hillbilly Highway
Goes On And On
Grandaddy Rolled Over In His Grave The Day That I Quit School
I Just Sat Around The House Playin' My Guitar
Daddy Said I Was A Fool
My Mama Cried When I Said Goodbye
I Never Heard Such A Lonesome Sound
Now I'm Standin' On This Highway And If You're Going My Way
You Know Where I'm Bound
