1. On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha,
G
you can listen to the engine moanin` out its one-note song.
D a ~
You can think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before.
And your thoughts will soon be wandering, the way they always do,
G
when you`re riding sixteen hours, and there's nothing much to do.
D a
And you don't feel much like riding', you just wish the trip was thro...ugh.

But here I am, on the road again, there I am, up on the stage.

Here I go, playing` the star again, here I go, turn the page.

2. Well, you walk into this restaurant, strung out from the road,
G

Later in the evening, as you lie awake in bed,
G
with the echos of the amplifiers ringin` in your head.
D FGa
And you smoke the day`s last cigarette, rememberin` what she sai...d.
(What she said).
Woman`s voice speaking: I do it for the money, and .....
and I can change my life, and I can...
I can be what society wants me to be,
and I can raise my daughter just as good as anybody else can.
