On the Road

On the Road Lyrics

The first time I got lonesome
Down in Houston
Next time that I missed you was L.A.
But in old Chicago town
I laid my poor life down
Just to hold you
Ooo just to kiss you

Baby you don't know how I miss you
Every night with my guitar
I pretend that I'm a star
And turn the ladies' heads with my smile
Catch a bus or catch a plane
Every station looks the same

I'm on the road
Where does this road go
I'm on the road
But where does this road go

I told you that I wouldn't do much traveling
Settle down and make a home for you
But the craving in my mind
And the paper that I signed
Makes me go on
Ooo takes me so long

Baby I've always treated you wrong

Well I thought I'd do my thing
With a show in New Orleans
The star up on the bill could hear me sing
But the man was so strung out
I begin to have to have my doubts

I'm on the road
But where does this road go
Lord I'm on the road
But where does this road go

Every hotel has a bar
You forget just where you are
There's a woman willing to be kind
I recall your face
Tried to put it in her place

I'm on the road
But Lord I miss you so
I'm on the road
But where does this road go
I'm on the road
But where does this road go
I'm on the road
Where does this road go
