Tired of the Road Joe

(Bob McDill)



I've been on the road twenty years

Ten thousand nights and a million beers

But I'm tired of the road Joe it's no fun anymore Joe

I'm savin' my money and I'll be goin' home soon.



I've lived good played with the best

Stayed up for days and never got no rest

But I'm gettin' old Joe tired of the road Joe

I'm savin' my money I'll be goin' home soon.



Ain't it funny how things don't work out

The way you had 'em planned

One day you just turn around

And it's slipped right through your hand.



These bandstand lights they won't erase

The wrinkles in my hand and the lines in my face

But I'm gettin' old Joe tired of the road Joe

I'm savin' my money and I'll be goin' home soon...
