[Verse 1] On a long, lonesome highway east of Omaha You can listen to the engine moanin' out his one-note song You can think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before [Verse 2] But your thoughts will soon be wanderin', the way they always do When you're ridin' sixteen hours, there's nothin' there to do You don't feel much like ridin', you just wish the trip was through [Chorus] 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 [Verse 3] Well, you walk into a restaurant, all strung out from the road Feel the eyes upon you as you're shakin' off the cold You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode [Verse 4] Most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can All the same old clichés, "Is that a woman or a man?" And you always seem outnumbered, you don't dare make a stand [Chorus] 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 [Verse 5] Out there in the spotlight, you're a million miles away Every ounce of energy you try to give away As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play [Verse 6] Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed With the echoes from the amplifiers ringin' in your head Smoke the day's last cigarette, rememberin' what she said [Chorus] Here I am, on the road again There I am, up on stage Here I go, playin' star again There I go, turn the page Here I am (Here I am), on the road again (On the road) There I am (There I am), up on the stage (Up on the stage) Here I go (Here I go), playin' star again (Playin' star again) There I go, there I go Turn the page
