[Intro]
C  G  D  G  Gsus G
[Verse]
Well there's a Gw***e house on the bad side Cdown in New OrGleans,
 COne girl got my Gmoney, the Aother got my shirt and Djeans.
Hell, I'm Glucky if I dont get herpes, they Ceven took my Gstash.
I'd like to Cput a thousand miles between Gme and Louisiana, 
But I Djust dont have the Gcash.
[Chorus]
I Cshould have listened to Gmomma, she said: Dson before you Ggo,
If you Cride that Devil's GHighway, 
You better beDlieve you're gonna pay the Gtoll.C  G  D  G  Gsus  G  
[Verse]
So this Gpiston poundin' fool just Cgot back down the Groad,
I got Chalfway to DayGtona before my Apanhead motor Dblowed.
Hell, I Glost my shirt again, it cost me damn near Ceverything to fix my Gride.
I just Chope it cold down in GFlorida,
'Cause all I Dgot is my Harley and my hide.G  
[Chorus]
I Cshould have listened to Gmomma, she said: Dson before you Ggo,
If you Cride that Devil's GHighway, 
You better beDlieve you're gonna pay the Gtoll.C  G  D  G  Gsus  G  Gsus  G  Gsus  G  
[Verse]
So I Gmotored on back up to Baltimore, froze my Cass off along the Gway,
I Ccalled up my ex old Glady, you know I Aneeded a place to Dstay.
But she Gsaid she'd found a new love he's the Ckind of guy i'm sure you'd Glike,
He's got a Cpunk rock hair do, Gparachute pants,
And he Drides a Japanese bike.G  
[Chorus/Outro]
I Cshould have listened to Gmomma, she said: Dson before you Ggo,
If you Cride that Devil's GHighway, 
You better beDlieve you're gonna pay the Gtoll.
That's right,
I Cshould have listened to Gmomma, she said: Dson before you Ggo,
If you Cride that Devils GHighway, 
You better beDlieve your gonna pay the Gtoll.
