[Ab]
My granddaddy was a miner and finally saw the light.
He didn't have much just a beat up truck and a dream about a better life.
Grandma cried when she waved goodbye.
You never heard such a lonesome sound.
Very soon the dirt road turned into blacktop Detroit City band.
Down that hill, belly highway.
That old hill, belly highway.
That old hill, [Db] belly highway.
[Ab] Goes on now.
Now the work man said money so one day he might say.
My old man off to college, he used his [Db] brains and not [Ab] his hands.
Grandma cried when she waved goodbye.
You never heard such a lonesome sound.
My daddy had himself a good job but he's still a [Db] humble [Ab] rolling down.
That old hill, belly highway.
That old hill, belly highway.
That old hill, [Db] belly highway.
Goes [Ab] on now.
Now, now, [Gb] now, [Ab] here we go.
My
[Db]
[Ab] granddaddy rolled over in his grave one day and I quit school.
I just sat around the house playing my guitar.
Daddy said it was a fluke.
My mama cried when she waved goodbye.
You never heard such a lonesome sound.
Now standing on this highway, if you're going my way, you know where I'm bound.
Down that hill, belly highway.
That old hill, belly highway.
That old hill, [Db] belly highway.
Goes [Ab] on now.
Yeah, [Gb] pretty mama, [Ab] that's a roll down.
