After all these years of running 'round
Flyin' high and fallin' down
Well, the time has come at last
To rest my heart and ease my past
I'm gonna leave these blues behind
For some other fool to find
He won't care and I don't mind
Hide me babe, hide me babe

Darlin' don't you cry tonight
The moon is full and the world is right
I have loved more than my share
Took the pain and called it fair
So I'm gonna lay down all my fears
My highway blues and my ramblin' tears
They can shout it down the line
I can't take what was not mine

I'll raise my glass and I'll make a toast
Better than some, harder than most
Left our mark on every town
Chased our dreams and we stood our ground
But I can't do those things no more
Not the way I done before
The same wings that brought me through
Can blow that fadin' flame out, too

After all these years of running 'round
Of flyin' high and fallin' down
Well, the time has come at last
To rest my heart and ease my past
I'm gonna leave these blues behind
For some other fool to find
He won't care and I don't mind
Hide me babe, hide me babe
