Topic: u2 done this song

Right,

this is going to be a tough one, even for the die hard U2 fans.

I have been singing this song for 20 years now, only part of it though.

I have just found out they sang it on a program called " the tube" in 1987.

the song is called " lost highway"


They might have been covering it, so I will give you the lyrics I know so far from memory.


I'm a rollin' stone to late for love

for the price of sin, I will pay the cause.

blah blah blah


but now im ......

too late for ......

just a rollin stone on that lost highway ???


I dont even know if these lyrics are the right ones or somewhere in my head in the last 20 years I have made up new lyrics for it ,lol

I did only hear it the once way way back then but never forgot the tune or them sitting in a small room singing it acoustically.
