Lyrics for Song: Turn the Page
Lyrics for Album: Turn the Page [RCA Victor] [1985]
On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine moanin' out it's one note song
Or you can think of the woman,
The girl you knew the night before.
Your thoughts will soon be wondering the way they always do
When your ridin' sixteen hours and there's notin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin',
You just wish the trip was through.
Here I am on the road again
There I am up on the stage
Here I go playin' star again
There I go, turn the page.
Well, you walk in to a restaraunt, strung out from the road
You can feel the eyes upon you as your shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you
But you just want to explode.
Most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can
All the same old cliches, is that a woman or a man
And you always seem outnumbered,
You don't dare make a stand.
Here I am on the road again
There I am up on the stage
Here I go playin' star again
There I go, turn the page.
Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
The echoes of the amplifiers ringin' in your head
You smoke the days last cigarette
Tryin' to remember what she said.
Say, here I am on the road again
There I am up on the stage
Here I go playin' star again
There I go, turn the page...
