Out on the Road (2008 Remaster)

Out on the Road (2008 Remaster) - The Hollies

I wasn't there (I wasn't there)

When I was needed (I wasn't there)

I was out on the road

Playing with my rock and roll band (I wasn't there)

I should have been right by her side

Like a good man ought to be

But this rock'n'roll music sure gotta hold on me

I wasn't there (I wasn't there)

When my shack was burning (I wasn't there)

I was out on the road playing

With my rock'n'roll band (I wasn't there)

While someone else put out the fire

I was wailing my guitar

Somehow this rock'n'roll music sure got a hold on me

Somewhere I know I sold my soul

Sold it to the devil or the king of rock'n'roll

Once I found out what the music was all about

Picked up my baggage

And I joined in a big rock show

I knew that I had to go

I wasn't there (I wasn't there)

There for my wedding (I wasn't there)

I was back on the road

Playing with my rock and roll band (I wasn't there)

But when I came off stage that night

I found her waiting patiently good girl

She knows that rock'n'roll music sure got a hold

Rock'n'roll music sure got a hold

She knows that rock'n'roll music sure got a hold on me
