11 - Turn The Page (Oracle Arena, Oakland, CA February 24th, 2007 Cd 1)
On a long and lonesome highway East of Omaha You can listen to the engine Moanin' out as one long song You can think about the woman Or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering The way they always do When you're riding sixteen hours And there's nothing much to do And you don't feel much like riding You just wish the trip was through
Say... Here I am - on the road again There I am - up on the stage Here I go - playing start again There I go - turn the page
Well, you walk into a restaurant Strung out from the road And you feel the eyes upon you As you're 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 Oh, 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 - playing start again There I go - turn the page
Out there in the spotlight You're a million miles away Every ounce of energy You try to give away As the sweat pours out your body Like the music that you play
Later in the evening As you lie awake in bed With the echoes from the amplifiers Ringing in your head You smoke the day's last cigarette Remembrin' what she said
She said... Here I am - on the road again There I am - up on the stage Here I go - playing start again There I go - turn the page
