[00:15.436]On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha
[00:21.343]You can listen to the engine moanin' out its one-note song
[00:28.109]You can think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before
[00:34.217]But your thoughts will soon be wandering, the way they always do
[00:41.692]When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing there to do
[00:48.259]And you don't feel much like riding, you just wish the trip was through
[00:55.963]Here I am, on a road again
[01:02.750]There I am, on the stage
[01:11.143]Here I go, playing star again
[01:25.148]There I go, turn the page
[01:42.087]Well, you walk into a restaurant all strung-out from the road
[01:52.804]And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shaking off the cold
[02:03.993]You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode
[02:13.790]Most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can
[02:24.183]All the same old clichés, is it woman, is it man?
[02:37.079]And you always seem outnumbered, so you don't dare make a stand
[02:38.980]Here I am, on a road again
[02:50.501]There I am, on the stage
[02:57.788]Here I go, playing star again
[03:04.034]There I go, turn the page
[03:13.072]Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away
[03:21.994]Every ounce of energy you try to give away
[03:29.933]As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play
[03:39.134]Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
[03:48.653]With the echoes from the amplifiers ringin' in your head
[03:59.773]You smoke the day's last cigarette, remembering what she said
[04:01.742]Here I am, on a road again
[04:05.262]There I am, up on the stage
[04:07.547]Here I go, playing star again
[04:12.882]There I go, turn the page
[04:15.211]Here I am, on a road again
[04:18.869]There I am, on the stage, yeah
[04:19.649]Here I go, playing star again
[04:19.844]There I go, there I go
