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 Ain't going nowhere but that's my way of life
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
