Turn the Page (Live at the Masonic, San Francisco, CA - November 3rd, 2018)

Lyrics

[Spoken: James Hetfield & Lars Ulrich] Here's a song we hope you know. Guess what count it is! Seven. One, two, three, four, one, two, three, four. [Verse 1] On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha You can listen to the engines moaning out as one old song You think about the woman, the girl you knew the night before But your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do When you're riding sixteen hours, nothing much to do And you don't feel much like riding, you wish the trip was through [Chorus] Here I am, on the road again Here I am, up on the stage There I go, playing the star again There I go, turn the page [Verse 2] You walk into this restaurant, all strung out from the road And you feel the eyes upon you, as you're shaking off the cold You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode And most times you can't hear them talk, other times you can All the same old cliches, is it woman or is it man? And you always seem outnumbered, you don't dare make a stand Make your stand [Chorus] And here I am, on the road again Here I am, up on the stage Here I go, playing the star again Here I go, turn the page Oh, oh, oh, oh [Verse 3] Out there in the spotlight, you're a million miles away Every ounce of energy, you try to give away As the sweat pours out your body, like the music that you play Later in the evening, as you lie awake in bed With the echoes of the amplifiers ringing in your head You smoke the day's last cigarette, remembering what she said What she said [Chorus] She said here I am, on the road again Here I am, up on that stage There you go, you're playing the star again There you go, turn the page [Outro] Oh, here I am, on the road again Here I am, up on the stage Here I go, playing the star again There I go, oh There I go [Spoken: James Hetfield & Kirk Hammett] Alright, alright, alright, thank you guys. How come we don't get a couch? Just this hard, this hard stool. See a doctor about that. Those guys can jump. Oh God. Yeah. You got a coffee table too. Wow, everyone does. You got snacks. Wow. Those guys really go all out. Got peanuts. Okay. Ah
