(Ed King - Ronnie Van Zant - Billy Powell)

I'm headed down a highway got a suitcase by my side

Blue skies hangin' over my head I got 500 miles to ride

I'm goin' down to Memphis town to play a latenight show

I hope the people are ready there 'cause the boys are all ready to go



[Chorus:]

Well, I'm a whiskey rock-a-roller

That's what I am

Women, whiskey and miles of travellin'

Is all I understand



I was born a travellin' man and my feets do burn the ground

I don't care for fancy music if your shoes can't shuffle around

I got a 100 women or more and there's no place I call home

The only time I'm satisfied is when I'm on the road



[Chorus]



Sometimes I wonder where will we go



Lord don't take my whiskey, rock and roll

Take me down to Memphis town, busdriver get me there

I got me a queenie she got longbrown curly hair

She likes to drink Old Grandad and her shoes do shuffle around

And everytime I see that gal

Lord she wants to take me down



[Chorus]



Sometimes I wonder where will we go

Lord don't take my whiskey, rock and roll
