HEADING FOR THE ROAD AGAIN
I'm tired of workin' on night shift
I'm sick of pullin' my weight
Just wanna pack up an drift away
I need to circulate
Won't let them creep up behind me
Won't let them point at my soul
I'll send a postcard from miles away
I'll be King Creole
I'll just pretend that I'm neutral and try to keep a straight face
They'll never notice I've gone away I don't need this place
Heading for the road again....
I'm gonna fill them with envy
My turn is long overdue
I'll hitch a ride to Montego Bay
No inland revenue
I'm gonna get me that payroll
Won't even put up a fight
and when they call in the F.B.I. I've done a twilight
I'll just pretend that I'm neutral and try to keep a straight face
They'll never notice I've gone away
I don't need this place
Heading for the road again....
I'll let them think that they're clever
Let then pursue their career
They're only living on yesterday
but I'm a pioneer
Heading for the road again.....
