Lookin’ far behind what do I see
A crazy world of madness made for me
A lost and lonely cry a second chance
Wait another turn at the dance

Simple sadness haunts my brain
The girl I left behind is missed again
An empty road some tunes to get me by
No wonder how it all makes me cry

Mister please I’m on my bended knee
Warm some coffee in my cup
The road has been so long
Still I gotta move,move along

Somehow the open road clears my head
Reasons left behind words been said
Given what’s at stake I need a lucky break
The mornin’ paper flies with words not read

Just remember this my friend
The road might get you in the end
And if it takes you very far hide a moonbeam in a jar
The rest is up to you my friend

Mister please I’m on my bended knee
Warm some coffee in my cup
The road has been so long
Still I gotta move,move along
