Original Songs

Down the Highway
Performers: Steamhammer
Songwriters: Martin Quittenton · Kieran White
Released: June 1969
I'm goin' down the highway tryin' to find my way back home;
I got my head against my hand and go waitin' beginnin' to moan.
It would be much better if my lady was by my side;
Ah but she isn't, so I have to try and bum another ride.
But no she isn't, so I have to try and bum another ride.
Mr. Limousine Driver
Performers: Grand Funk Railroad
Songwriter: Mark Farner
Released: 29 December 1969
Hey, Mr. limousine driver, I know you know where it's at.
Too late will be later, you just read your evening paper;
And don't worry 'bout what's goin' on in back.
