GJust about a year ago, I Cset out on the Groad

GThings got bad, and Emthings got worse, I Cguess you will know the Gtune
Oh Lord, Dstuck in Lodi aGgain

Ran outta time and money, looks like they took my friends
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
v.3
The man from the magazine said I was on my way
Somewhere I lost connections, ran outta songs to play
I came into town, a one-night stand, looks like my plan fell through
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again
