Jerry Jeff Walker/John Inmon



Last year we went to London and Paris, Texas

We went on a bus tour, the great Texas honky tonk tour

Here are some snapshots about life on the road.....



Let me tell you 'bout the life I lead

It ain't all it's cracked up to be

Of what you been told, 'bout life on the road

Rolling round in a painted bus, 

Just so y'all can look at us

Life on the road



You pack your clothes and your shaving kit

Some extra socks and those pants that fit

Check 'em for holes, life on the road

Everything you pack is black, washed it all upon your back

For life on the road



Climb on board the bus and grab your bunk

One on the bottom is the one you want

Less rock and roll as you roll down the road

Plug John Wayne in the VCR

Let the driver tell you where you are

Life on the road



You get a bed and a TV set, you get an ashtray for your cigarette

You get HBO, well that's life on the road

Get one down on the bottom floor, 

Hang a do not disturb sign on the door

Life on the road



You get clean sheets and a wake-up call

Don't go up north in the spring and fall

But not when it's cold, that's no life on the road

Coffee black with pie a la mode

That's what you want before the show

Life on the road



Tonight we're playing that high school gym

They're all drunk before I even begin

They're hollering "Pissin' in the Wind"

Life on the road



The local band opens up for us

Now the PA's got a real big buzz

Life on the road



The good news is I get to sing my songs

The bad news is they all sing along

And they're singing wrong notes

Ahh, life on the road



But if I stop, it won't be long

Before they're singing someone else's song

Life on the road
