On a long and lonesome highwayeast of
OmahaYou can listen to the enginemoanin' out his one note song
You can think about the womanor the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wanderingthe way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hoursand there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin',you just wish the trip was through
Here I amOn the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I goPlayin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
Well you walk into a restaurant,strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon youas you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother youbut 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
Here I amOn the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I goPlayin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
Out there in the spotlightyou're a million miles away
Every ounce of energyyou try to give away
As the sweat pours out your bodylike the music that you play
Later in the eveningas you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiersringin' in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette,rememberin' what she said
Here I amOn the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I goPlayin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
Here I amOn the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I goPlayin' star again
There I go
Turn the page
There I go
There I go
