Standing on the road walking down the highway
Ain`t going nowhere but that`s my way of life
I never had a lot of ambition but I always made my own way
By turnin` a couple of jobs in some ladies` backyard I averaged about a dollar a day
I wake up early each morning and before I started on my way
I get some cogarettes and a couple of cups of coffee sweepin` the local city cafe
Standing on the road walking down the highway...
I`ve never had no one to love me never`ve girl to call my own
I never would take a chance or fool with romance I guess I`m too used to being alone
Nobody wants a drifter and I gotta keep moving on
There`s nothing to tie me down when I wanna leave town
Nobody to miss me when I`m gone
Standing on the road walking down the highway...
