Lyrics

[Verse 1] Guess it should make me glad Thinkin' back on the good times we had The Sqwaukin' Jaybird hotel room That old cotton club saloon Don't even make me sad Just makes me kinda mad [Chorus] Here I am, on the road again So soon, so soon Lyin' here in these beat up rags Blightin' out the moon With my 5 cent stogie over you [Verse 2] You can't just stop setting Your brother in law to calling me About your needy surgery Bill him that broad you back in At the cracks in the dawn I'm getting in the wind Honey, I'm gone [Chorus] On the road again So soon, so soon Lyin' here in these beat up rags Blightin' out thе moon With my 5 cent stogie over you [Verse 3] Just saw a country boy Might bе fun Didn't look back yonder To see where I was coming from Said he shook up you to bow But you ain't laughin' now, huh But you But you stop laughing now Here I am [Chorus] On the road again So soon, so soon Lyin' here in these beat up rags Blightin' out the moon With my 5 cent stogie over you [Verse 4] You even kept old blue Dumb dog plum fell under Your spell too Gonna get me another hound And we gonna make the rounds Run rabbits 'til they drop He found some terry pow [Chorus] On the road again So soon, so soon Lyin' here in these beat up rags Blightin' out the moon With my 5 cent stogie over you [Verse 5] Though me starting monday Just gonna be short one old slonky Better start charging Your cheap thrills I'm goin' over yonder hill I said it, and I'm glad Oh lord, the times we had Here I am [Chorus] On the road again So soon, so soon Lyin' here in these beat up rags Blightin' out the moon With my 5 cent stogie over you [Outro] 'Member the times we had Lord lord, the times we had
