I live on the road I got the rocking desaese
But it sure ain't as good,sure ain't as good
As being with you
You got the game with the money and fame
Why should I believe you got my picture in a frame
And that it sure ain't as good,sure ain't as good
As being with
Chorus:
I'll send you a letter,I'll send you a rose
I'll love you forever 'cause I love you the most
I don't want a man on the telephone line
Honey I know but I'm touring Japan
But it sure ain't as good,sure ain't as good
As being with
Chorus
Just one more show and then you won't be alone
Well it's about time that you're coming back home
'Cause it sure ain't as good,sure ain't as good
As being with
