Keith Richards and Eric Clapton – Key To The Highway – Live

Keith Richards and Eric Clapton – Key To The Highway – Live at Crossroads Guitar Festival, 2013.

This is great! Two really different approaches to playing the blues: Clapton’s style is more about the ferocity and Keith’s style is more about the rhythm and ground beat!

Love seeing these two guys on stage together!

Lyrics:
I got the key to the highway
Billed out and bound to go
Gonna leave here running
Walking is much too slow

I’m going back to the border
Baby, where I’m better known
Because you haven’t done nothing, baby
But drove a good man from home

When the moon peeks over the mountains
Lil girl, I’ll be on my way
I’m gonna roam this highway
Until the break of day

So give me one more kiss, darling
Just before I go
‘Cause when I leave this time, little girl
I won’t be back no more, no more

I got the key (I got the key) to the highway (to the highway)
Billed out and bound to go (I gotta go, I gotta go)
I’m gonna leave here running (mhm)
Walking is much too slow
