Too many sweethearts and none of them true Too many things that I shouldn't do Made lots of money all spent the wrong way Heading down the wrong highway Made lots of friends and now they're all gone Too many mem'ries that still linger on Too many dreams whole night and day Heading down the wrong highway
Too many heartaches and too many tears Crowded too much in just a few years Want to go right but I've lost my way Heading down the wrong highway Lost everything lost all my friends God only knows how this all will ends Drinking and gambling each night and day Heading down the wrong highway
[As sung by Hank Locklin on "Bummin' Around" (RCA Camden CAS 2121) 1967.]
