Long Hard Road (Live at Grugahalle Essen, 06.10.1979)

I'm a starving musician, an eager ambition
I was born to lose
Went fifth and chill, ripped in a seal
I'm past the worn out shoes
Like it slow, it's the same old song
I take myself a fifteen minute break
Sipping on wine, I'm feeling real fine
Cruising on a soul train

Searching on, searching on
The hard road, the long, hard road
Searching on, searching on
The hard road, the long, hard road
Searching on, searching on
The hard road, the long, hard road

I've been bar-hopping, thinking of popping
Just got back into town
Heard what they say, stains in my bay
Baby, I've been shopping around
Well, I've seen a slicker, do things quicker
Bought a box of chocolate sweets
Took my picture frame, changed my mailbox name
Threw my clothes in the middle of the street

Searching on, searching on
The hard road, the long, hard road
Searching on, searching on
The hard road, the long, hard road
Searching on, searching on
The hard road, the long, hard road
