I know you’re lonely but just walk on down the road   It’s not far to go   I’ve been so hungry but I’ll tighten up my belt   Back home I go      Whoa and it takes a long, long lonely time   Whoa a hill to climb   With love on my side I’m gonna be alright   Whoa now you watch me go   Down Carpet Road      It’s like a film set and all the actors have gone home   The lonely feeling outside this road is like the loneliness in my soul   You keep your women and your wine and your money cos I’m just doing fine   I gotta feeling gonna have to make it on my own this time       Whoa and it takes a long, long lonely time   Whoa a hill to climb   With love on my side I’m gonna be alright   Whoa now you watch me go   Down Carpet Road      Whoa and it takes a long, long lonely time   Whoa a hill to climb   With love on my side I’m gonna be alright   Whoa now you watch me go   Down Carpet Road
