MIm
On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha
RE
You can listen to the engines moaning out as one note song
LA MIm
You think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before
MIm
But your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do
RE
When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing much to do
LA MIm
And you don't feel much like riding, you just wish the trip was through
RE MIm
Here I am - on the road again
RE MIm
There I am - up on the stage
RE MIm
Here I go - playing star again
DO RE MIm
There I go - turn the page
MIm
So you walk into this restaurant strung out from the road
RE
And you feel the eyes upon you, as you're shaking off the cold
LA MIm
You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode
MIm
Yeah, most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can
RE
Oh, the same old clichés, "Is it woman? Is it man?"
RE
And you always seem outnumbered, you don't dare make a stand
MIm
Make your stand
RE MIm
Here I am - on the road again
RE MIm
There I am - up on the stage
RE MIm
Here I go - playing star again
DO RE MIm
There I go - turn the page
MIm
Oo-ooh, out there in the spotlight, you're a million miles away
RE
Every ounce of energy you try to give away
LA MIm
As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play, yeah
(only singing)
Later in the evening, you lie awake in bed
With the echoes of the amplifiers ringing in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette, remembering what she said
What she said
He-ey
Yeah
RE MIm
Here I am - on the road again
RE MIm
There I am - up on the stage
RE MIm
Here I go - playing star again
DO RE MIm
There I go - turn the page
DO RE MIm
There I go - turn that page
DO
There I go, yeah, yeah
RE
There I go, yeah, yeah
DO
There I go, yeah
RE
There I go, yeah
