I don't have much to say
Thought I'd call you up anyway
Just to try to show you the way
That I feel today
Oh, I miss you, baby

I sure am on the road
I don't need to say much more
Just the same old well-known stranger
That I was before
It seems like yesterday now
Daddy's all gone
Only 'bout halfway home
He's holdin' on to the telephone
Singin' please
Don't make this show go on
There's a bus every other hour
There's even the midnight train
But that don't leave me the power
To see your face again
It's not that simple, baby
There's a room full of smiling faces
There's a man standing by the door
Says it's time to change our places
Get down on the floor
Time to kill them, baby

Daddy's all gone
Only 'bout halfway home
He's holdin' on to the microphone
Singin' please
Don't make this show go on
