Just about a year ago, I set out on the road Seekin' my fame and fortune, I'm lookin' for a pot of gold Things got bad and things got worse, I guess you know the tune Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again I boarded on the Greyhound, and I'm walkin' there, by the road I was just passin' through, it must be seven months or more I ran out of time and money, it looks like the two were friends Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again (Solo) Man from a magazine, who said I was on my way But somewhere I lost connection, I ran out of songs to play I planned many times of one-night stands, it looks like my plans fell through Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again If I had a million dollars for every song I've sung Or every time I had to play while people slapped their tongue I know I'll 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 There we go, get ready!
