Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door But won't get the girl I'm loving Won't go down Highway 51 no more. Well, I know that highway like I know my hand Yes, I know that highway like I know the back of my hand Running from up Wisconsin Way down to no man's land. Well, if I should die before my time should come And if I should die before my time should come Won't you bury my body Out on Highway 51? Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door I said, Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door But won't get the girl I'm loving Won't go down Highway 51 no more.
