Lodi

Just about a year ago, I set out on the road
Seekin' my fame and fortune, lookin' for a pot of gold
Things got bad, and things got worse, I guess you will know the tune
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.

Rode in on the Greyhound, I'll be walkin' out if I go
I was just passin' through, must be seven months or more
Ran out of time and money, looks like they took my friends
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.

The man from the magazine said I was on my way
But somewhere I lost connections, ran out of songs to play
I came into town, a one night stand, looks like my plans fell through
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.

If I only had a dollar, for every song I've sung
And every time I've had to play while people sat there drunk
You know, I'd catch the next train right back to where I'm from
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.
