Stranger On The Road

(album: Flyin' High - 1976)

Yeah-ah I like that yell

Well I'm just a stranger on the open road
Always seem to find a way
It doesn't matter what you may come
Lord I'm never gonna say
A living hard and a running wild
Always make my claim to fame
Don't turn around cause I'll be gone

Looking back
Someone's calling my name
Can't you see that there is no one to blame
Looking back
You're caught in the flame

Well when I was young
My daddy hit your feet
Don't you ever stay in one place
Said your chances of knowing
And becoming a man
Got a big smile on your face

With your head in the air
And your feet on the ground
We got a chance of staying alive

Well because rock was just looking me down
Said Bye, bye, bye, bye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Ohhhh oh

Looking back
Someone's calling my name
Can't you see that there is no one to blame
Looking back
You're caught in the flame
Well I guess your children will never know
That everything you say is doomed
I'm a stange kind a fella, Lordy don't you know
I never step on anyone's shoes

With your head in the air
And your feet on the ground
We got a chance of staying alive
Well take a tip from me why don'cha try to be free

Lawd I'm just a stranger on the open road
Wooo
