So long big city
It's time to say goodbye
I'm longing for those country roads
I need to see the sky
Think I'll take a swing down south
Visit Tennessee
See if that girl Annie
Still remembers me
Gonna take that blue highway
And leave this sorry town
Stayed too long, but now I'm gone
And I know where I'm bound
I don't want to take the interstate
It represents all the things I hate
I'm rolling down that blue highway
So long confusion
It's time to slow things down
Say goodbye to my old friends
Ease on out of town
I made me some money here
I paid for every day
And every mile just makes me smile
'Cause I've made my getaway
Gonna take that blue highway
And leave this sorry town
Stayed too long, but now I'm gone
And I know where I'm bound
I've had it up to here with worry
From now on I'm in no hurry
Rolling down that blue highway
I'll be rolling down that blue highway
You can find me on that blue highway
Chet Atkins (1924-2001) è stato uno dei chitarristi più influenti del XX secolo. Nato Chester Burton Atkins in Tennessee, ha iniziato a suonare la chitarra all'età di 7 anni e si è presto distinto per il suo talento innato.

Ha collaborato con artisti come Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash e The Everly Brothers, contribuendo a definire l'estetica musicale americana degli anni '50 e '60. Atkins ha vinto 14 Grammy Awards per la sua musica e il suo contributo al mondo della chitarra.
