Life on the Road

i'm into the music

i'm into the toys

but not really into the boys

don't wanna be a groupie

or anyone's wife

just wanna be one of the boys

 

i like the adventure

of the open road

so many sites to see

as stories unfold

 

sometimes the traveling

can be unsettling

too much time on the road

can be tiring you know

but you have to go

and get on with the show

 

the venues start to look the same

just different faces and different names

you can't get too attached

just keep the memories stashed

that's just my guess on how it would be

I don't speak from experience you see

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I always wondered what touring might be like...whether as a roadie or part of a band...this is my best guess what it might be like. I suppose if you give yourself enough time to make stops along the way to sight see it could be lots of fun but just having enough time to travel from one gig to the next could be very grueling and tiring...bus...venue...bus...venue...just my thoughts on it. As with anything don't knock it til you try it I suppose...
