On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha
You can listen to the engines moaning out
its 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 riding sixteen hours
and theres nothing much to do
And you don't feel much like riding
you just wish the trip was through
Here I am on the road again
There I am up on the stage
Here I go playing star again
There I go turn the page
So you walk into this restaurant
strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you
as you're shaking off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you
but you just want to explode
Yeah most times you can't hear em talk
other times you can
All the same old clichés is it woman is it man
And you always seem outnumbered
you don't dare make a stand
Make your stand
Here I am on the road again
There I am up on the stage
Here I go playing star again
There I go turn the page
Oo ooh out there in the spotlight
youre 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 yeah
Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes of the amplifiers ringing in your head
You smoke the days last cigarette
remembering what she said
What she said
Heey
Yeah
And here I am on the road again
There I am up on a stage
Here I go playing star again
There I go turn the page
There I go turn that page
There I go yeah yeah
There I go yeah yeah
There I go yeah
There I go yeah
There I go oo oo ooh
There I go
And I'm gone
