| Intro: |
| On a long and lonesome highway |
| east of Omaha |
| You can listen to the engine, |
| moanin' out his one note song |
| You can think about the woman, |
| Or the girl you knew the night before |
| But your thoughts will soon be wandering |
| the way they always do |
| When you're ridin' sixteen hours |
| and there's nothing much to do |
| And you don't feel much like ridin', |
| you just wish the trip was through |
| Chorus: |
| but here I am, on the road again |
| here I am, up on the stage |
| here I go, playing the star again |
| there I go, turn the page |
| well you walk into a restaraunt, |
| strung out from the road |
| and you feel the eyes upon you, |
| as your shaking off the cold |
| you pretend it doesn't bother you, |
| but you just want to explode |
| Most times you can't hear 'em talk, |
| other times you can |
| All the same old cliches |
| "Is that a woman or a man?" |
| And you always seem outnumbered, |
| You don't dare make a stand |
| Repeat Chorus |
| Out there in the spotlight |
| You're a million miles away |
| Every ounce of energy |
| You try to give away |
| As the sweat pours out your body |
| Like the music that you play |
| Later in the evening |
| As you lie awake in bed |
| With the echoes from the amplifiers |
| Ringin' in your head |
| You smoke the day's last cigarette, |
| Rememberin' what she said |
| Bridge: |
| x4 |
| but here I am, on the road again |
| here I am, up on the stage |
| here I go, playing the star again |
| there I go, there I go |
