Down in the dumps and feeling blue,
Sitting home got nothing to do
Help me-Just get me
Down the road, down the road, that's where it's best

Homesick for the road again, homesick, it's our friend
When we're on tour we're at our best,
Anywhere; North, South, East or West
We get the call, I get my wish,
I'll pack my bags, you get my mail and feed my fish

We're down the road, down the road
That's where we're best
No worries there, no mess, no fuss
Take me anywhere, but get me on that bus!
We're down the road, on a quest, down the road,
That's where we're best

A band possessed, we're always ready to strike
We like what we do, we do whatever we like
Just give us beer, liquor, money, chicks and a stage
Oh-Tay, time to rage-onstage, backstage
The bus or hotel
'Round and 'Round with Scatterbrain
The Carousel From Hell!
All-aboard; Check your morals at the door
Acts against nature, acts against god
Acts of sheer stupidity, we hit it hard
Every night-it's not a pretty sight

We're always ready to go off-a loaded gun
Rock 'n' Roll ain't pretty, but it sure is fun
In town after town, night after night,
We're having fun with our friends, the fun never ends

We're down the road, down the road
That's where we're best
No worries there, no mess, no fuss
Take me anywhere, but get me on that bus!
We're down the road, on a quest, down the road,
That's where we're best

On a quest for excitement, for a thrill,
Coming to your town-moving in for the kill
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, more, more, more
We're just like little kids in a candy store
Gut us going, we just can't stop,
Just like a crazy bull loose in a china shop
Acts against nature, acts against god
Acts of sheer stupidity, we hit it hard

Let's go! No worries there, no mess, no fuss
Take me anywhere, but get me on that bus!
We're down the road, I said down the road,
There ain't no worries there
There ain't no mess, no fuss
Take me anywhere, but get me on that bus!
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust;
Dead or alive-down the road or bust!

We're always ready to go off-a loaded gun
Rock 'n' Roll ain't pretty, but it sure is fun
In town after town, night after night,
We're having fun with our friends, the fun never ends

Here comes trouble and it looks like fun,
Everyone's invited, everybody-everyone
In town after town, night after night,
We're having fun with our friends, the fun never ends
