Started Out In Birmingham,
With Jim Beam In A Pepsi Can,
Just To Help Me Cut The Pain.
Spent The Night In Mobile,
Sleepin' On The Steerin' Wheel.
Woke Up With The Sun Callin' Your Name.

And I Got Miles Of Heartache Yet To Go.
Never Knew Forgettin' You Would Go So Slow.
The Memory Of You And Me's A Long And Windin' Road.
And I Got Miles Of Heartache Yet To Go.

Headed Down To New Orleans,
Fell Into A Cajun Dream,
Damned If I Recall Her Name.
Burned It Up On Bourbon Street,
Woke Up Standin' On My Feet.
Headed Out That Morning In The Rain.

And I Got Miles Of Heartache Yet To Go.
I Never Knew Forgettin' You Would Go So Slow.
The Memory Of You And Me's A Long And Windin' Road.
And I Got Miles Of Heartache Yet To Go.

Drifted Down To Mexico,
And Figured I'd Just Lay Low.
Saturday Night They Threw Me Into Jail.
Blew My Last Twenty-five,
In Some Old Tiajuana Dive.
Ain't Got No Dinero For My Bail.

And I Got......

Instrumental Break.

Tomorrow They Will Set Me Free,
But Free Is What I'll Never Be,
Long As Memories Remain.
New Orleans Or Mexico,
It Don't Matter Where I Go.
Your Love Is Like A Ball And Chain.

And I Got Miles Of Heartache Yet To Go.
I Never Knew Forgettin' You Would Go So Slow.
The Memory Of You And Me's A Long And Windin' Road.
And I've Got Miles Of Heartache Yet To Go.

Yes, I've Got Miles Of Heartache Yet To Go
