Lyrics
old man looks down at his shoes
says come on boys
lets get these feet on the move
all the places and people we meet
lets head from the bars
and head to the streets
I say yeah
I say yeah
up and down this lonely road
one more night and one more show
I have lost all my plans
chalk it up to a suitcase caravan
Young man he's got nothing to lose
wears his heart on his sleeve
he is singing the blues
goddamn somebody give him a match
so he can light this fire
and get off his ass
I say yeah
I say yeah
up and down this lonely road
one more night and one more show
I have lost all my plans
chalk it up to a suitcase caravan
Run away
Run away
old man looks down at his shoes
says come on boys
lets get these feet on the move
all the places and people we meet
lets head from the bars
and head to the streets
I say yeah
I say yeah
