Back On The Road lyrics

Entwistle (c) 1979



I`m tired just kicking my heels at home

Waiting for the phone to ring

Anything but sit around all day and play

The electric drummer way

No audience applauds they can`t see through doors

Chorus

But I got to get back on the road

Life is like a heavy stone around my neck

When I can`t hit the deck

Back on the road

Turn on my guitar and empty all the pain

Play to you again

The world`s a stage and I am just a player

Waiting for my turn to wear the crown

The world`s a stage and I am just a player

You cut my strings and I fall down

Playing with yourself can send you blind

To everything you hear

Blind from ear to ear

Going crazy, being lazy

I find myself forgetting who I am

Maybe I`m a madman

Chorus

But I got to get back on the road

Life is like a heavy stone around my neck

When I can`t hit the deck

Back on the road

Turn on my guitar and empty all the pain

Play to you again
