I told you once, the day we met
I wouldn't be your queen
Your little darlin', sweet coquette
Just wasn't my routine
You've been around enough to know
There's really no one else
When I hear that siren call, baby
I just can't help myself
I gotta go
I hope you'll understand
I love you so
Want you to be my man
I hear it callin'
Sounds so sweet and plain
I gotta go, baby, 'cause the road's my middle name
Well, it's hard enough to love someone
When they're right close to home
Don't you think I know it's hard, honey?
To squeeze the sugar from the phone
ย
Guess the road is in my blood
'Cause I'm my daddy's kid
You just have to learn how to let me go
Just like my mama did
I gotta go
I hope you'll understand
Yeah, I love you so
Want you to be my man
I hear it call, baby
Sounds so sweet and plain
I gotta go, 'cause the road's my middle name
Hear it callin'
And it sounds so sweet and plain
I gotta go, 'cause the road is my middle name
I gotta go, 'cause the road's my middle name
Ooh, I gotta go, darlin', because the road is my middle name
