King Of The Road
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'll be on the road to nowhere
Before you know i'm gone
Six days of sex and sun
Finally got my blue jeans on
Oh, it's a long long way
but I might make it with a little faith
And it's pointless fantasy I know
but I can do it
It's a spaceman's odessy oh yeah
but I can do it
'Cause i'm the
King of the Road
I'm the
King of the Road
Then I saw her standing there
Beside the sunday crowd
seven years since i took off
without a sound
Oh, it was a long long road
and I wish i'd had you with me to fight off the cold
It was a pointless fantasy I know
But I had to do it
It was a spaceman's odessy I know
But I had to do it
And I was the
King of the Road
King of the Road
But then one day I woke to find a million cars had passed me by
And I wore the same old fashioned clothes in the same old fashioned way
No more
King of the Road
King of the Road
