I've been standing here  Waiting for the bus on a Saturday  Laundry on my back  Ultraviolet rays  Like i'm posing for a shot in a magazine  What the hell does it mean    I'm a travelling man  Straight from the can  I'm a thousand miles away  From my number one fan    My folks are getting tight  Won't let me out at night  You can't avoid the complications  When there's no reason at all    When the lightning strikes we'll fry  I'll drink my beer  I'll wipe my tears  Southbound in the sky    Another crime  Another reason gets you everyday  The only time that you can talk  You ain't got nothing to say    Well, I'm caught up in a stupid game  That I can't play  It's just a waste of time  But I'm in it anyway    I've been sitting here  Watching the signs  Too many cars at night  Belching in the moonlight    We're doing ninety  As the sky turns to gray  The people look like bees  Buzzing by the highway    The wheels are rolling  Like a rolling stone  Alone, I chose the road less traveled on    Now I'm lying here  Waiting for the day on the second deck  Dreaming of a girl from a fairy tale  Chain around my neck  A ride is all it takes  But pains get in the way
