Lyrics

Please Mr. Jones can you show me the way
I've been a bad man and it's hear I cannot stay
I've shot a man with a hunting
I'm on the move, I'm on the run

Please Mr. Jones can you point to the way
I robbed a bank and it's here I cannot stay
I shot a man with a hunting gun
I've got to pick up and make my run

Please Mr. Jones, show me the way
Lead me to the trail of the runaway highway
Don't tell a soul
What I did I've did or what I've done
Lead them astray and lead them on

Mr. Johnson show me the way
I've sinned against G-d
So don't hold me at bay
I've got my stash
I've got my gun
But my life's finished
It's over and done

Please Mr. Johnson
Show me the way
Lead me to the trail of the runaway highway
Don't a soul what I've did or what I've done
Lead the astray, but don't lead them on

Please Mr. Jones
Show me the way
Lead me to the trail of the runaway highway
Don't tell a soul what I did or what I've done
Leave them astray, but don't lead them on
