One more day, do you know how long?
Voices out there say "sing your song"
But all they ever see is the spotlight shining
Never to know, I stand here on my own

Come on now, won't you take a chance
On the guitar slingers song and dance
Cry at night for there's no romance
On the guitar slingers song and dance

I know you don't think I've got much to lose
By the cut of my hair and the look of my shoes
Oh, but I just keep on rolling, while the wheels keep turning
And by the way, have you heard the news?

Now everyday don't come up roses
Well, it's not easy baby - oh, it just gets harder day by day
And sometimes I get this feeling, it's my life they're stealing
Oh, I can feel it

Take these words I say to heart
Can you feel the highway from my guitar?
And if you see me standing
In the spotlight shining
These six strings will play my part
