Road Ladies
Frank Zappa
Don't it ever get lonesome?
(Yeah sure gets lonesome)
Don't it ever get sad when you go out on the road?
(Oh there was one time in Minneapolis
When I thought I had the clap for sure)
Don't it ever get lonesome?
(Lonesome ain't the word)
Don't it ever get sad when you go out on a thirty day tour?
(Oh I'll take it away)
You got nothing but groupies and promoters to love you
And a pile of laundry by the hotel door
Don't it ever get lonesome?
Don't it ever give a young man the blues?
Don't it ever get lonesome?
Don't it ever make a young man wanna go back home?
When the P.A. system eats it
And the band plays some of the most terriblest shit you ever known
Don't you ever miss your
House in the country and your
Hot little mama too?
Don't you ever miss your
House in the country and your
Hot little mama too?
Don't you better get a
Shot of the doctor for what the
Road ladies do to you?
I know someday I will never
I'll never go out on the road again
Oh yeah
I know someday I will never
I ain't gonna roam the country side
No more
I'm gonna hang up them ol' holiday inns yeah
And heal my knees up
From when I was doing it on the floor
See me doing it
See me doing on the floor
Don't you ever miss your
House in the country and your
Hot little mama too?
Don't you ever miss your
House in the country and your
Hot little mama too?
Don't you better get a
Shot of the doctor for what the
Road ladies do to you?
