From a 1959 Folkways album titled "The Blues", songs and interviews with Big Bill Broonzy, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee. Together they sang a version of Keys To The Highway. No indication of the author.
I've got the key, key to the highway;
Yes Bill's not got far to go;
I'm gonna leave, leave here rfunning,
Because walkin's most too slow.
I'm going down to the river,
Yes, I'm gonna take my rocking chair;
I'm gonna have blues and troubles,
I'm gonna rock on away from there.
I'm going down to the border,
Yes, baby where I'm better know,
Cause you haven't done nothin' here little girl,
But drive a good man from his home.
Now give me one, old kiss baby,
Yes, just before I go;
Cause when I leave this time, my little girl,
I declare, Bill won't be back no more.
Now when the moon peeps over the mountain,
Now you know I'll be on my way;
I'm gonna walk, walk this old highway,
Babe, until the break of day.
So long, good bye,
Yes I hate to say good-bye,
I'm gonna walk, walk this old highway,
Babe, until the day I die.
Enjoy,
Zorro
