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, 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

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, stuck in Lodi again

If I only had a dollar

For ev'ry song I've sung

Ev'ry time I've had to play

While people sat there drunk

You know, I'd catch the next train

Back to where I live

Oh, Lord, stuck in Lodi again

Oh, Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
