Back On 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.

Ah, oh oh...

I've been up

I've been down

I've been every which way round

I was lost in a sea of self pity

I fooled myself

That I was fine

Someone who liked my company

I played host

I entertained Mr Misery

And Mr Sorrow

He'd come along sometimes

I never liked his face

And here we'd sit

Three musketeers

Sorry misery and me

Ah oh oh..

Hey I know

Where I would rather be

I may not get to heaven

You put me

Back on the road

Back on the road

I may not get to heaven

Ask myself

I'm back on the road

I'm back on the road

I'm back on the road

And Mr Sorrow

He'd come along sometimes

I never liked his face

And here we'd sit

Musketeers

Sorrow

Misery

Me

Ah oh oh..

Guess where I'd rather be

I may not get to heaven

But with you

I'm back on the road

I'm back on the road

I'm back on the road

Again
