Metallica - Turn the Page
On a long and lonesome highway,
East of Omaha
When you listen to the engine moaning out as one long song
You think about the woman, the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering
The way they always do
When you're riding 16 hours
There's nothing much to do
And you don't feel much like riding
You just wish the trip was through
Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
There I go
Playin the star again
There I go
Turn the page
So you walk into this restaurant
Strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you
As you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you
But you just want to explode
Yeah most times you can't here them talk
Other times you can
All the same old cliche's
Is it woman, is it man
And you always feel outnumbered
And you don't dare take a stand
Make your stand
Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
There I go
Playin the star again
There I go
Turn the page
Oh, out there in the spotlight
You're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy
You try and give away
As the sweat pours out your body
Like the music that you play
And later in the evening
As you lie awake in bed
With the echoes of the amplifiers
Ringing in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette
Rememberin' what she said
Yeah, and here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on that stage
There I go
Playin star again
There I go
Turn the page
Yeah there I go
Turn that page
There I go, yeah,
There I go, yeah, yeah
There I go, yeah,
There I go, yeah,
There I go, yeah,
There I go
