You ask me 'bout the life I'm living About always being on the road I've got a restless bone and music is my load Sometimes we get a little stir crazy When you're about ready to explode You need to let off some steam It's Rock 'n' Roll a' la mode I gotta move on Keep singing my songs It's a way of life you know the road is turning me on So baby be strong I won't be gone long I was born to keep on rocking And let this long road carry me home ♪ We did some gigs in Kosovo Hell, we even played Japan I guess we proved them wrong When they called us a flash in the pan And out in golden California You know we never made the show We took a wrong turn, baby, and ended up in Mexico I gotta move on Keep singing my songs It's a way of life you know the road is turning me on So baby be strong I won't be gone long I was born to keep on rocking Let this long road carry me home You asked me last night baby If I'm ever gonna settle down I'm gonna leave this town and at the break of dawn I'm already gone I gotta move on Keep singing my songs It's a way of life you know the road is turning me on So baby be strong I won't be gone long I was born to keep on rocking Let this long road carry me home
