My Way Of Life

(альбом: Standing Alone - 1970)

Standing on the road, walking down the highway
Ain't going nowhere but that's my way of life

Well I ain't never had much ambition but I always made my own way
By turning 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 sweeping the local city cafe

Standing on the road, walking down the highway
Ain't going nowhere but that's my way of life

Ain't 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 used to being alone
Nobody wants a drifter so I'll keep moving on
There's nothing to tie me down when I wanna leave town
Nobody's gonna miss me when I'm gone

Standing on the road, walking down the highway
Ain't going nowhere but that's my way of life
