Good morning, John:
Ain't it great to see your future shining brighter,
Than the naked light of day?
You made it, John:
But I confess there was a time we two have thought,
That you might let it slip away.
I love you, John:
In the cold and holy darkness,
You were always shining brighter than a star.
God bless you, John:
For the love and joy you've given,
As the living inspiration that you are.

You scared me, John:
'Cos you've crossed so many borders into danger,
With the price upon your head.
They got you, John:
And it hurts to see so many friends who ran,
Along beside you laying dead.
I know you, John:
There ain't nothing you can't handle now,
'Cause there ain't nothing bigger than your heart.
Keep shining, John:
For you owe it to the others as the dark,
And holy wonder that you are.

Hang in there, John:
It's a rocky road to glory,
But the straightest and the strongest will survive.
Keep smiling, John:
We won't make it there tomorrow,
But today let's say we're lucky we're alive.
I see you, John:
For the best of good intentions,
Have a way of getting scattered by the wind.
I mean it, John:
You might lose your mind or memory,
But you ain't gonna lose me as your friend.

Everybody?s lookin? for some way in,
I?m lookin? for some way out.
I?ve been wastin? my time standin? in line
If this is what it?s all about.

All I got is a job that I don?t like
And a woman that don?t understand.
So tonight at the bar,
I?ll get in my car
And take off for the promise land.

Drinkin? and dreamin?
Knowin? damn well I can?t go.
I?ll never see Texas, L.A., or Old Mexico.
But here at this table, I?m able to leave it behind.
Drink ?til I?m dreamin?, a thousand miles out of my mind.

This suit and this tie, is just a disguise.
This ain?t really me.
Some people are born, to be tied down,
Some people are born to be free.

When I look down the road she don?t know
How it gets under my skin.
She?s got my body but my heart and soul
Are out there ridin? the wind.

Drinkin? and dreamin?
Knowin? damn well I can?t go.
I?ll never see Texas, L.A., or Old Mexico.
But here at this table, I?m able to leave it behind.
Drink ?til I?m dreamin?, a thousand miles out of my mind.

Drinkin? and dreamin?
Knowin? damn well I can?t go.
I?ll never see Texas, L.A., or Old Mexico.
But here at this table, I?m able to leave it behind.
Drink ?til I?m dreamin?, a thousand miles out of my mind.

On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha
you can listen to the engine moanin' out its one note song
or you can think of the woman, the girl you knew the night before

your thoughts will soon be wondering the way they always do
when your ridin' sixteen hours and there's notning much to do
and you don't feel much like ridin' you just wish the trip was through

Here I am on the road again
there I am up on the stage
here I go playin' star again
there I go turn the page

Well you walk in to a restaraunt strung out from the road
you can feel the eyes upon you as your shaking off the cold
you pretend it doesn't bother you but you just want to explode

most times you can't hear 'em talk other times you can
all the same old cliches is that a woman or a man
and you always seem outnumbered you don't dare make a stand

Here I am on the road again
there I am up on the stage
here I go playin' star again
there I go turn the page

Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
the echoes of the amplifiers ringin' in your head
you smoke the days last cigarette tryin' to remember what she said

say here I am on the road again
there I am up on the stage
here I go playin' star again
there I go turn the page
