[Verse 1]
[C]Friday night's pay night,
guys [F]fresh out of [C]work
[F][C][F][C]
Talking about the weekend,
[G]scrubbing off the [C]dirt
[F][C][F]
Some [C]heading home to their families,
some [F]looking to get [C]hurt
[F][C][F]
Some [C]going down to Stovell
wearing [G]trouble on their [C]shirts
[F][C][F]
[C]I work

[Verse 2]
for the county out on [F]ninety [C]five
[F][C][F]
All [C]day I hold a red flag
and watch the [G]traffic pass me [C]by
[F][C][F]
In [C]my head I keep a picture
of a [F]pretty little [C]miss
[F][C][F]
[C]Someday, mister, I'm gonna
[G]lead a better [C]life than this

[Chorus 1]
[F]Working on the highway,
[G]laying down the black[C]top
[F]Working on the highway,
[G]all day long I don't [C]stop
[F]Working on the highway,
[G]blasting through the bed[C]rock
[F]Working on the highway,
[G]working on the high[C]way

[Verse 3]
I [C]met her at a dance down [F]at the union [C]hall
[F][C][F]
She [C]was standing with her brothers,
back [G]up against the [C]wall
[F][C][F]
Some[C]times we'd go walking down
the [F]Union [C]tracks
[F][C][F]
One [C]day I looked straight at her
and she [G]looked straight [C]back

[Chorus 2]
So I'm [F]working on the highway,
[G]laying down the black[C]top
[F]Working on the highway,
[G]all day long I don't [C]stop

[Bridge 1]
I [Am]saved up my money and I [C]put it all away
I [Am]went to see her daddy
but we [C]didn't have much to say
[Am]"Son, can't you see that she's [C]just a little girl
[F]She don't know nothing
about this [G]cruel, cruel world"

[Verse 4]
We lit [C]out down to Florida,
we [F]got along all [C]right
[F][C][F]
One [C]day her brothers came and got her
And they [G]took me in a [C]black-and-white
[F][C][F]
The [C]prosecutor kept the promise
that he [F]made on that [C]day
[F][C][F]
And [C]the judge got mad
and he [G]put me straight a[C]way
[F][C][F]
I [C]wake up every morning
to the [F]work bell [C]clang
[F][C][F]
Me [C]and the warden go swinging on the
Charlotte County road gang

[Chorus 3]
I'm [F]working on the highway,
[G]laying down the black[C]top
[F]Working on the highway,
[G]all day long I don't [C]stop
[F]Working on the highway,
[G]blasting through the bed[C]rock
[F]Working on the highway,
[G]working on the high[C]way

[Chorus 4]
I'm [F]working on the highway,
[G]laying down the black[C]top
[F]Working on the highway,
[G]all day long I don't [C]stop
[F]Working on the highway,
[G]blasting through the bed[C]rock
[F]Working on the highway,
[G]working on the high[C]way
