Just about a year ago I set out on the road

Seekin my fame and fortune lookin for a pot of gold

Things got bad and things got worse I guess you will know the tune

Oh lord stuck in lodi again

Rode in on the greyhound Ill be walkin out if I go

I was just passin through must be seven months or more

Ran out of time and money looks like they took my friends

Oh lord I'm stuck in lodi again

The man from the magazine said I was on my way

Somewhere I lost connections ran out of songs to play

I came into town a one night stand looks like my plans fell through

Oh lord stuck in lodi again

If I only had a dollar for evry song I've sung

And evry time I've had to play while people sat there drunk

You know Id catch the next train back to where I live

Oh lord I'm stuck in lodi again

Oh lord I'm stuck in lodi again
