Standing on the road walking down the highway

Ain't going nowhere but that's our 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 cigarettes and a couple of cups of coffee

A sweepin' the local city cafe



Standing on the road walking down the highway...



I never had no one to love me never had girl to call my own

I never would take a chance to fool with romance

I guess I'm too used to being alone

Nobody wants a drifter well 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
